However, are you saying that we can still use " to enclose multi word
arguments, and let these words contain ' without escaping?
Yes, but I want multi word arguments can be unqouted, too.
eg.:
option = good value
option = good'n better values # comment
option = "bad value
option = still"bad value
that would be a very nice compromise: this way " is still use to
(optionally) enclose arguments, and if " is part of the argument it
should be escaped. While ' can be used as it is (which is what you
need, I seem to understand).
cheers
