KB0005: Using HFFR from command line, how do I search for a single quote mark?

Question

Using HFFR from command line, how do I search for a single quote mark? As quote marks are used in the syntax, I can't work this out.

Answer

You can try using regular expressions and specify the following escape sequence: \x22 or \x27 (where 22 is the hex code of " and 27 is the hex code of ' ).

For example:

\x22The Cinematic Orchestra\x22

for "The Cinematic Orchestra".
