Wow! O'Reilly publishers will soon be feeling the benefits. Be sure to
tell them that I sent you. ;-b

That would involve a search and replace operation that I could do in
seconds with TextPad (in fact I created macro in TextPad to do just
that) or NoteTabPro, both of which support regex's. All we have been
doing with these regex macros so far is extracting matching text strings
from text variables. Removing the excess quote prefixes and leaving just
one is more involved and scripting would have to be involved.

I'm willing to take the challenge since it improves my regex crafting
skills but, AFAICS, this one seems to be out of the scope of TB!.
