how to add a essid containing explanation mark!

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

essid == my wlan!

1.  pyrit -e "my wlan!" create_essid
(does not work if history expansion is set on the shell)

2.  pyrit -e "my wlan\!" create_essid
(creates a essid with the backslash in the essid)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Trying to escape the explanation mark using a backslash does not work.

However doing the following does make it work.
set +H
pyrit -e "my wlan!" create_essid
set -H

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
ver 0.3.0

Please provide any additional information below.

This is completely up to your shell. Usuall the '-character will prevent the 
shell from interpreting the content so the following should work

pyrit -e 'my wlan!' create_essid
