Fwd: parameter starting with dollar sign

[Frank Van Damme]

(Sorry for possible reposts. I'll stop reposting the day Gmane actually
works).

Does anybody know how to use a parameter to a check command that starts
with a dollar sign? Nagios interprets the dollar as if I want to
substitute the variable with a macro. I tried escaping, but then I get a
literal \ backslash.
