Password with a quote " in ist

[Halvar]

Sorry if this was answered before but I couldn't find anything.

I have to create ZIP files on a regular basis that must be encrypted with a pssword. This password contains special characters, and especially the double quote ".

taking aa"a as an example password, my command line would be something like

pacomp -a -saa"a -e2 -p myfile.zip myfile.txt

... but this doesn't work because the quotation mark is interpreted as the beginning of a string.

I tried escaping the " sign with "", \" and ^", but nothing of this works (in fact, with "", pacomp created a file but with the password aaa instead of aa"a ).

Any advice? Thanks!
