Exclamation mark ("!") in password needs to be escaped to work #51

Closed chrisoffner closed 1 year ago

Running shreddit-mac with a password that includes the sequence !<digits> (where <digits> is a sequence of digits, like 1234) gives me the error:

zsh: no such event: <digits>

Only if I escape the exclamation mark like this: pAsSwoRd\!<digits> does it work.

That's just part of ZSH / BASH CLI commands.
