Doubling the quote seems to work here.
Thanks Bosco, DrakoRod, and Adrian. Between the three of you it became
obvious
that I was doing something wrong. And yes, in the end you were right.
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.
aklaver@panda:~> psql 'dbname=test user=test_user password=test\\pwd'
psql (9.0.17)
Type "help" for help.

Apologies for the noise. Just been one of those days.
Thanks,
Nelson
