Doubling
the quote does indeed work.
It turns out it this particular password also had a \ in it, and my
console
width wrapped right before it, putting it as the first character on
the next
line, where I just didn't notice it until a few minutes ago. I changed
that to
a ^ for the time being, and then doubled the quote whereupon it all
worked. I
will certainly look into how to escape the backslash too, but that's
for next
week at this point.
I'd consider using `mkpasswd -l 15 -s 0` just to avoid any such
problems. 15 random alphanumerics is already plenty complex, 62^15th
possible combinations, without needing to mix in special characters.
$ mkpasswd -l 15 -s 0
