They might be typographically correct, but they are incorrect for code, and cause so many issues. I'd rather have typographically incorrect quotes that work everywhere.
- Tomte 4y agoWhy would you type them for code? I'm not arguing for the mobile phone automatisms. I insist on separate keys for different quotes.
- elcapitan 4y agoIt's true that people wouldn't use them on their own, but there are a lot of cases (especially blog software, automatic ebook formatting etc), where code examples get messed up subtly by software changing code quotes to standard quotes, often invisibly. The same for minus signs vs dashes.
