Mohammad, I am at my desk this time,
I am not sure why you are doing this? as in this case you are passing to the macro an intentionally quoted string? In some ways a minimal solution would be \define removequotes(item) <<__item__>> \end <<removequotes 'single quotes'>> <<removequotes "double quotes">> I have the following working which defaults to currentTiddler rather than throwing an error. Except it fails if current tiddler has double Quotes \define remove-quotes(item) <$set name="item" value=<<__item__>> emptyValue="""$(currentTiddler)$""" > <$list filter="""[<item>removeprefix["]removesuffix["]] [<item>removeprefix[']removesuffix[']]"""></$list> </$set> \end <<remove-quotes "'single quotes'">> <<remove-quotes '"double quotes"'>> <<remove-quotes>> Given your solution, how are you planning to use it? What is the source of the titles with Quotes in their name?.
