Any way to accomplish this in Emacs? Tried googling "German > quotation marks", but that's probably not the right way to describe > it. One way to make it easier in Emacs is Electric Quote mode (https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Quotation-Marks.= html): With (taken from https://www.reddit.com/r/orgmode/comments/k73ihb/german_quotation_marks_in_= orgmode/): | (setq electric-quote-replace-double t | electric-quote-chars '(8216 8217 8222 8220)) one can type "Test" and get =E2=80=9ETest=E2=80=9C. (Personally, on Linux I use the Compose key (Compose, ",", '"' and Compose, "<", '"=E2=80=99) for quotation marks as this works everywhere, i. e. also in the shell, etc.) Tim
