I'm so sorry; I meant to indicate that I actually did try this (and many other permutations of single-quotes, double-quotes, double-double-quotes, double-single quotes...)
Wrapping the entire thing in single-quotes (I've also tried the 'backtick') gives me zero results (copy and paste the above line from Kovid):
Code:
C:\Program Files\Calibre2>calibredb list -s 'title:"=The Twins"'
id title authors
If I remove the "=" but leave the single-quotes, I still get nothing:
Code:
C:\Program Files\Calibre2>calibredb list -s 'title:"The Twins"'
id title authors
Removing the escaping gets me back to 'too many hits':
Code:
C:\Program Files\Calibre2>calibredb list -s title:"The Twins"
id title authors
