How can I display single quotes (') in a structured text document? Is there some way to escape single quotes? When I use them to surround a word, ('word'), they get converted to <code>word</code>. Thanks, Mark
I assume you can't use single quotes since there is no escape mechanism present for such characters in STXNG. -aj --On Dienstag, 7. Januar 2003 10:03 -0700 Mark Gibson <mark@dimensional.com> wrote:

Ooh, that sucks :-(
What's the best way to rectify that?
...by avoiding STXNG and using reStructuredText ;-) -aj

Therefor, you can use HTML character references to get any character you like. For "'" is would be "'". Dieter
