Linux cli in bash, password with special keys for viewer account fails #123

When i try to launch grafana kiosk on linux from terminal with the dashboard link, goauth, username and password which contain special characters it fails with

bas: !D4k@9#: event not found.

(the !D4k@9# is part of the password after the exclamation mark, before its numbers and letters.)

version 1.0.6 from release system: arhclinux latest with systemd and gnome

I tried to google it, but what results i found was about grafana server admin password having issues with special characters and the cli wrapper, but nothing about the kiosk came up. Any idea or a workaround like putting the password between "" or <> (there is no space or whitespace between the characters)?

you might want to create a config file if there are special characters, dealing with shell escapes can be rough. ! & @ can cause issues.
