Quotes

Could be automatic using normal single & double quote characters (smart quotes style), or could have separate opening and closing quote characters LaTeX style. LaTeX style might be preferable, as it is more flexible.

Automatic

'lorem ipsum' => ‘lorem ipsum’ "lorem ipsum" => “lorem ipsum”

LaTeX Style

`lorem ipsum' => ‘lorem ipsum’ ``lorem ipsum'' => “lorem ipsum”
