How do I?
Find or Findstr /C fail searching for "Breton " with the space at the end of line. I don't want to find "Breton" occurrences but exactly "Breton ". How do I manage searches with spaces or other special chars...?

I was using wrong syntax.
findstr /C:"Breton " does work.

put another space in front eg /c " Breten ".
