Needed why? In LyX, the " character should be suitable for both.
(See User's Guide 3.7.2.2 on setting quote-character options.)
Here is an example taken from an explanation of how to write correct
syntax when using regular expressions.
Not a compelling example, I'm afraid, unless I'm missing something. The
example you provided isn't a LyX file, and its use of the "backquote"
and "single quote" characters to resemble double-quote characters is
hardly necessary. Regular double-quote characters would have served
just as well.
More importantly, your example doesn't touch on Geoffrey's claim that
"two open single quotes are needed [but the double quote character] is
valid for closing quotes".
