How do we submit a company name with two words? Like TJ Max? Missing from the readme and command line doesn't allow for "" or ''. #1

Hi @Dataphix

Two word company names can be searched through wrapping the name in quotes, ex: python3 crosslinked.py -f 'domain\{first}.{last}' 'tj maxx'

If you are still having issues, you can encode the company name for direct implementation into the search URL. However, this method would not be compatible with the --safe option: python3 crosslinked.py -f 'domain\{first}.{last}' 'tj%20maxx'

Company names with apostrophes can be handled the same way: python3 crosslinked.py -f 'domain\{first}.{last}' "o'reilly" python3 crosslinked.py -f 'domain\{first}.{last}' "o%27reilly"

Good catch, this information is missing from the readme and is probably helpful to other users as well!
