Grr, this seems to simple to be true.

> Additionally, if you want to pass more than one parameter to echo, the parameters must not be enclosed within parentheses.

> void echo ( string $arg1 [, string $... ] )

Perhaps this should be split into two lines, one without parentheses and with multiple arguments and one with parentheses and a single argument.

Or multiple arguments should be supported in both forms..
