echo '&', echo "&", echo \&, etc. should work fine. Quoting or escaping, that is.

& \ . * /
Are called metacharacters for the shell because the have special meaning & - used to send a command to run in background \ = so-called escape character because it means 'take the next chacacter literally' as in echo \& . current directory * wildcard for file specifications / path separator, name of the root of all paths |

Was it worth dredging up a 2 month dead thread, just to say that?
