Do you allow some off-topic remarks?

The »*~« part is not properly quoted (o=opening, c=closing quotes).
You may use one of the following:

|     "                                   '*~'"
|     '                                   "*~"'
|     '                                   \'*~\''

Some Unix-Standard (SUS2, SYS3?  I don't remember exactly) suggest to

              ^^ better use "$@" (including the quotes)

Bye, Reiner.
