Defining custom quotes

You can define your own custom quote characters by calling:

$[quotes](»,«,›,‹)

quotes is the indicator for spell that you wish to define your custom quote characters.

»,«,›,‹ are four special HTML characters seperated by ,.

The order is always:

  1. double quote left
  2. double quote right
  3. single quote left
  4. single quote right

You can use other characters and also try UTF-8 characters.

The default characters are simple double and single quotes like " and '.

Using custom quotes

To use the custom quotes there are four seperate commands available. The goal is to be as easy to read in unencoded mode like all Markdown.

Put a text in %"double quotes"% or %'single quotes'%.

results in the following, if you have defined custome quote chars as shown above:

Put a text in »double quotes« or ›single quotes‹.

As a rule of thumb: The quote char is always towards the quoted text, not outside.
