I have a user who is trying to get an MVS file using sftp. Trouble is the MVS 
dataset starts with '$' and her script attempts to substitute. We are rather 
new to the Linux world and nobody here is really that good with scripting. In 
my test script below, the first 'get' works just fine. The second one fails 
with not found even thought it exist and the user has permission to it.

File "/_'.sftp2bat'" not found.


#!/bin/sh
sftp [EMAIL PROTECTED] <<END_SCRIPT
get /_'zzxzaoe.sftp2bat' test.a
get /_'$aoe.sftp2bat'    test.b
quit
END_SCRIPT

What is really interesting is that if I execute the sftp interactively, both 
'get' statements work. Any hints or code would be appreciated.

Thanks
