I'm trying to make a bash shell script that mounts, from some pre-obtained variables, a text file.

For this I use sed, changing the flags of the file by the desired:

sed "s/this is a line in text/$var/g" file

It works correctly and without problems. However, the $var variable often has strange characters, often being cryptographic keys such as:

When this happens, the sed command breaks, resulting in:

sed: -e expression #1, char 39: unterminated `s' command

I understand that the contents of the variable is interpreted by sed as part of the sed command, giving the error.

Is there a way to send the variable to sed as plain text and that it is not interpreted?if is not possible, is there any simple alternative to replace sed in this case?
