NCM Config Script literal @ sign

I have a need to have an ftp server declared in an NCM script. This command line includes an @ character. Is there a way to force it to see that @ as literal instead of a variable? the whole command line includes a variable as well.

Here is the command:

file copy @variablename ftp_user@10.1.1.1/@variablename

The @variablename are actual variables and need to remain as such, but the @10.1.1.1 is obviously not a variable.

Any way to get that to stay literal?

Thanks

Figured it out. It's kind of convoluted (to me) but it works. I declare it as a string variable and perform + joins on it:

string @FTPvar = 'file copy ' + @variablename + ' ftp://ftp_user' + ':' + @FTPpassword + '@'; + '10.1.1.1' + '/' + @variablename

Then just call @FTPvar in the CLI script body.

Edit: Have to add spaces after file copy and before ftp:// and preserve whitespace in the script. Otherwise it joins them with no spaces.
