You're right.

I am looking for the quotes. I want the output to be
"e 3"
but I cannot use 'mold, because
>> print mold first a
"e1"
..and I don't want the quotes when there were none in the original string.
Does this make things clearer? I've begun thinking about the parse rule myself, but I
thought I remembered someone having solved this before on this list, so I hoped to
spare the thinking (and rethinking, and...).
