sed escaped replace

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/407523/escape-a-string-for-a-sed-replace-pattern
ESCAPED_REPLACE=$(printf '%s\n' "$REPLACE" | sed -e 's/[\/&]/\\&/g')
# Now you can use ESCAPED_REPLACE in the original sed statement
sed "s|KEYWORD|${ESCAPED_REPLACE}|g"
if you have "base64 -w 0" string (even multiline), it does not needs to be escaped
