Are you perhaps reading the doc for Cygwin's /bin/echo? The Zsh doc entry
for the echo builtin looks like this:
----------
echo [ -neE ] [ ARG ... ]
Write each ARG on the standard output, with a space separating
each one. If the -n flag is not present, print a newline at the
end. echo recognizes the following escape sequences:
\a
bell character
[...and so on for other escapes...]
\UNNNNNNNN
unicode character code in hexadecimal
The -E flag, or the BSD_ECHO option, can be used to disable these
escape sequences. In the latter case, -e flag can be used to
enable them.
