I am trying to set a environment variable in OS X which has a equals sign in the value but when I echo that variable I don't get anything. Without the equals sign it is fine. How do I set a equals sign as the value?

export test='hello=123' echo $test is giving an empty line. export test='hello123' echo $test gives hello123 – Sidhant Sep 01 '16 at 18:53
