Hello all,
The smart quote code has gotten a little borked, at least in HTML.
This:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
He said, "You should believe me, 'cause it's 'true'."
#+END_EXAMPLE
Exports to this:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
<p>
He said, “You should believe me, ’cause it’s
’true’.”
</p>
#+END_EXAMPLE
The quote before "true" should be a left single quote, and it used to be,
like this:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
<p>
He said, “You should believe me, ’cause it’s
‘true’.”
</p>
#+END_EXAMPLE
I looked at the code, but it has become more convoluted than I can
figure out in the time allotted. Hopefully the error is obvious to
someone more familiar with it.

There is indeed a bug, thank you. I'm going to fix it.

I don't think we ever achieved this result. At best, we can obtain:
He said, “You should believe me, ‘cause it’s
‘true’.”
I doubt it is possible to tell that 'cause begins with an apostrophe and
not an opening single quote without grammatical analysis.

Indeed. I pointed it out because it was unexpectedly doing the right thing.
Thank you.
