For whatever reason the ! breaks the steamcmd login, probably has something to do with how steam reads text (might think the ! is some sort of start to code or something) best bet is to remove it
-_-
Don't know why nobody has tried this yet, but worked for me. The error is related to shell interpretation. So use an escape character before every problematic special character. That's a \ for bash
Ie. password12!34 becomes password12\!34
worked for me without needing to change my password (annoying as generated by a password manager)
please fix for

When using a password including certain special characters, it can become impossible to log in. My password includes !, which appears to break things.
When logging in, it will consistently give an error claiming an invalid password, despite the password being correct. I tried running it all as one command, but got an error from bash saying "event not found". When I opened "steamcmd.sh" to see if I could get an idea of what was wrong, I saw that there were double quotes instead of single quotes. I believe the script is attempting to parse my password
