I just tried gtk on my Mac (for the first time I admit...) and it
behaves as I expect i.e. ' is '
This is just a guess, but it looks like whatever shell you are running
is being "helpful" and upon seeing a single quote is declaring it an
opening quote and using the special character (which is indeed a
spelling error in j)
Perhaps this is a preference setting in the facility you are using
(knowing your environment might be helpful for someone trying to
reproduce the problem). I have been frustrated by that helpfulness in
word processing programs...

Hi,
when I use j701gtk and enter a single quote the wrong character appears and
J says 'spelling error'.
When I do the same in j701con it works fine, so it doesn't seem to be a
keyboard mapping problem.
As far as I can see the character for U00B4 (accent aigu) is input in
j701gtk when I actually enter U0027 (apostroph).
Am I doing something wrong or is this maybe a bug?
TIA,
/Arie
