[Pywikipedia-l] How do I insert an "!" (exclamation mark)?

[Chris Watkins]

When I used replace.py and tried to use an "!" in the replace text, it
replaced it with a weird string of text (actually part of a replace command
I ran weeks ago).

I've been able to fix everything except getting the ! where it should be.

If I run:
python replace.py -cat:"The Transition Handbook" "-- Please do not remove "
"!-- Please do not remove "

...t doesn't change anything.

If I try a backslash before the exclamation mark, "\!", it prompts to insert
it *including* the backslash.

How do I just insert a "!"? I tried looking online but found nothing.

Thanks
Chris
