How does it handle the other left one when they come in pairs?<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Jan 27, 2012 at 10:01 AM, James Adcock <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:jimad@msn.com">jimad@msn.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

&gt;It is not ambiguous and a short look into the unicode standard would tell<br>
you that right curly quote is the preferred glyph for apostrophe.<br>
<br>
If you have managed to convince PG submitters to actually follow this<br>
preference, then you have accomplished something.  If not, you are simply<br>
automagically compounding errors.<br>
<br>
&quot;Apostrophe,&quot; ASCII U+0027, a neutral, highly overloaded, and ambiguous<br>
encoding which has been used in encoding a wide variety of meanings since<br>
before I was born -- and I wasn&#39;t born yesterday -- and which could mean a<br>
lot of things in a submitted text.<br>
<br>
Right Single Quotation Mark, UNICODE U+2019, an unambiguous encoding which<br>
can only mean right curly single quotation mark.<br>
<br>
If indeed, as you seem to be suggesting, that you are &quot;automagically&quot;<br>
changing U+0027 to U+2019, then all you have accomplished is implementing<br>
yet-another naive algorithm for (incorrectly) changing straights to curlies.<br>
