Subject: [gentoo-user] {OT} wput with weird characters

1 I need to periodically upload a file to an ftp server, but the
2 password they've issued me has a '!' and a '&' character in it. I
3 tried escaping those characters like this:
4
5 wput -A file.txt ftp://username:abc\!123\&@ftp.example.com/file.txt
6
7 but then it tells me the password isn't correct. How can I use a
8 password like that with wput?
