I guess so, for the very same I have tried with
Command: psql test -c "> CREATE FUNCTION add_one (integer) RETURNS
INTEGER AS ' BEGIN RETURN ''$1'' + 1; END; ' LANGUAGE
'plpgsql';"
But still it is not taking it as $1, instead empty string.
Ideeally it shud consider $1 as string... but why isn't it

You do realize that the shell is going to interpret that string in
double quotes right?
