Can a script like the one you used to batch-convert the graves and straight
quotes to curly quotes be made a part of the documentation generation
section in the Makefile?
That way, the source code can remain plan ASCII with ` and '. But when we
build emacs, the generated user-facing NEWS file now has the curly quotes.
That way we have a consistent ASCII source code for NEWS and user-facing
NEWS with curly quotes (generated at build time).
WDYT?
