jekyll:~$ /bin/sh sh-2.05a$ echo "this is a test!" sh: !": event not found sh-2.05a$ echo "this is a test\!" this is a test\! jekyll:~$ bash --posix bash-2.05a$ echo "this is a test!" bash: !": event not found bash-2.05a$ echo "this is a test\!" this is a test\! As I said earlier, the bash maintainers insist that this behavior is permitted by POSIX, and so they consider it not to be a bug. -- Greg Wooledge | "Truth belongs to everybody."
