Re: [orca-list] the apostrophe char is not announced correctly when typed

[José Vilmar Estácio de Souza <vilmar informal com br>]

Hi.
Seems that espeak use the word quote to read ''' and the word quotes to 
read '"'.

The problem for me is that orca uses a different approach.
Orca uses apostrophe to announce ''' and quote to announce '"'.
Thanks.
