Re: [orca-list] apostrophe versus quote

["John G. Heim" <jheim math wisc edu>]

I'm not sure I followed all that but if I use speakup with software 
speech and espeak, it says the word tick for the apostrophe character. 
And it says tick for both typing and backspacing over the char. There is 
no inconsistency for the other characters either.

So I am a little confused by what you're telling me. Does the fact that 
espeak works correctly with speakup mean anything with respect to this 
problem?
