I meant to say you can try using [] around each of the special characters that 
a simple \ still doesn't protect. ie. apt-get install gcc-g[+][+]

Putting the 'gcc-g++' in double quotes would have been the simpler approach 
but even the double quotes doesn't always seem to protect some special 
characters in strings.
