[OS X TeX] question concerning sed and $

[Rechtsanwalt Friedrich Vosberg]

Morning.

At a server I have to save files the name of directories have a
structure like:

   /Volumes/DirABC$/Procter & Gamble/...

How should I modify the following example that it works with ampersands
and $ signs too?

===== 8>< =====
\documentclass{ltxdoc}
\usepackage{xspace}
\begingroup
\let\\\relax
\immediate\write18{pwd | sed -e 's/&/\\&/g' | iconv -f UTF-8-MAC -t
MacRoman | awk -F'\\n' '{print "\\newcommand{\\fvpath}{" $1
"\\xspace}"}' > tmppath.tex}
\endgroup
\input{tmppath.tex}
\begin{document}
\fvpath
\end{document}
===== ><8 =====

TIA and kind regards. Friedrich
