If I run the code in my own terminal using 

  sh projectbingo.sh

it shows as:

Hello World

hi

When I run the following code :

 gnome-terminal  --window-with-profile=tushar -x ./projectbingo.sh

A new terminal pops out but shows :

./projectbingo.sh: line 3: $'\E[H\E[2J': command not found
./projectbingo.sh: line 23: $'\E[H\E[2J': command not found
./projectbingo.sh: line 77: $'\E[H\E[2J': command not found

Solução

This isn't a terminal issue. I suspect a shell issue.

Specifically, that $'...' notation is a bash-specific extension, but you are running the script simply by sh and not bash, so it won't apply.

Try changing the shebang line in the script to

#!/bin/bash

Outras dicas

It was not a shell specific issue . I do not know why it happened ... but when I used 

   echo -e "Hello World\nHi"

It worked But when i try it running sh projectbingo.sh it shows

-e Hello World Hi

So My problem was solved but leading to the arrival of new problem
