Comment (by ErlendH):
This patch uses the following symbols:
- U+201B SINGLE HIGH-REVERSED-9 QUOTATION MARK
- U+2019 RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK
Shouldn't the first one be U+2018 LEFT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK to match the
right quotation mark?
Right now it looks really unbalanced with the fonts I tested. Is this
intentional?
Here's a screenshot, using Microsoft's Source Code Pro font:
