Personally I'd hold such a filename in a flat text file and avoid unix Shell interpreting the filename by using "cat" instead of "echo" or whatever is appropriate to your process.
Beware with the bckslash approach that it will behave differently from within a Shell script compared with the command line. Always test from a Shell script.

NAME
CPANPLUS::Shell - base class for CPANPLUS shells
SYNOPSIS
use CPANPLUS::Shell; # load the shell indicated by your
# config -- defaults to

my $ui = CPANPLUS::Shell->new();
my $name = $ui->which; # Find out what shell you loaded

loading class), so please consult the documentation of your shell of choice.
