Subject: Re: master ff4de1b: Fix quoting style in Lisp comments
Date: Fri, 17 Sep 2021 15:22:12 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <jwvbl4rf1sc.fsf-monnier+emacs@gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1a0f9230b76ce1574e10@heytings.org> (Gregory Heytings's message of "Fri, 17 Sep 2021 19:14:43 +0000")
> The point is not to discuss whether Unicode makes a better distinction
> between different kinds of quotation marks and apostrophe. It does,
> obviously. But (1) these characters are difficult to enter on most
> keyboards, (2) it is not realistic to expect that keyboards will change, as
> 99.9% users do not need or even understand those subtleties, and word
100% agreement. My preference for using a well-defined convention based
on some existing markup language is that the text is then plain ASCII
(and hence easy to type and to display) but we can additionally prettify
it in a reliable way if the user cares about it.
