-Special characters such as `$`, `\*`, and `!` require escaping.
-If the password you are using has special characters, you need to escape them using the `\\` character. For example, if your actual password is `S!B\*d$zDsb`, you should execute the command this way:
-     kubectl create secret generic dev-db-secret --from-literal=username=devuser --from-literal=password=S\\!B\\\\*d\\$zDsb
+Special characters such as `$`, `\`, `*`, and `!` will be interpreted by your [shell](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_\(computing\)) and require escaping. In most common shells, the easiest way to escape the password is to surround it with single quotes (`'`). For example, if your actual password is `S!B\*d$zDsb`, you should execute the command this way:
+
+```
+kubectl create secret generic dev-db-secret --from-literal=username=devuser --from-literal=password='S!B\*d$zDsb'
