The apostrophes are put in the doc string so that links can be parsed in the Help buffer, not for the end user. Links are evident by using the appropriate face and removing the apostrophes makes their appearance consistent with info. I also have other changes which I think improve linking in the Help buffer. I will submit again after the release. Nick
