+
+ The old behavior of quoting `like this' doesn't look good with
+ newer, ISO-style fonts. See:
+ http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/quotes.html
+
+ Instead, quote "like this" by default. Let the translator
+ tailor the locale-specific quoting behavior by providing
+ translations for {LEFT QUOTATION MARK} and {RIGHT QUOTATION MARK}.
+
+ * quotearg.c (N_): New macro.
+ (gettext_default): New function.
+ (quotearg_buffer_restyled): Use
+ gettext_default ("{LEFT QUOTATION MARK}", "\"") for left quote, and
+ gettext_default ("{RIGHT QUOTATION MARK}", "\"") for right quote.
