I was trying to get curly quotes in a title. I went looking in the docs
for an example and found one. I copy/pasted the quotes from the
displayed input in the docs and it worked fine. But I'm still wondering
how it works. I tried the TeX convention `` '' and got literally that
in the output.
On my Linux machine, I found the left and right curly quotes at
ALT-GR v and ALT-GR b, respectively. You can always use
the character map program to search for different symbols
(on Windows, Start Menu - All Programs - Accessories -
System Tools - Character map).
