Aren't they just standard quotes with basic style ? (overstriking with <del> or <s> in HTML)
How are they different to quoting multiple personalities, each one with their own color (red, green, blue, black for the author, grey for side remarks...) There are certainly lots of combinations to denote contexts of quotations or add intended emphasis from an author, including changing fonts (italics, bold; font size, character spacing, decorations, indentations,...). Every possible style already working in documents can be used in such combinations. But even in this case, it is possible to extract a part of it that has a standard text meaning, even if its contextual usage is different and carries additional semantics with these styles. 2014-06-10 13:51 GMT+02:00 Frédéric Grosshans <[email protected]> : > This week’s shady character introduces quasiquotation marks, used in > fanzines since at least 1944 for “in substance” quaotation.
