splunk cmd btool anything list for stanzas containing whitespaces

m_efremov
Explorer

I have some saved searches with whitespaces in their names. So in savedsearches.conf i have stanzas like following: "[Any saved search 1]". When I perform the command like
xsplunk cmd btool savedsearches list 'Any saved search 1' --debug
I have results for all saved searches contains word "Any" at the begining of name. How can I list savedsearch named "Any saved search 1" exactly?

I tried a few things and I was unable to find a solution that works either. As a workaround, you might find that the app Config Explorer https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/4353/ might make it easier to review the full btool output. Disclaimer: I am the developer.
