Indeed, bracket completion has to ignore content of strings otherwise
you can't write stuff like:
put ( ")" & "'" ) & ( "'" ) into tVar
Without funky things happening.
...and with good reason. I can't think why I would *ever* write that.
If I had to do something that daft I'd write it as
put ")''" into tVar
but I would hope the occasion would never arise.
Indeed - it is a bit of tortuous example...
However cases of double quotes, single-quotes, un-balanced brackets,
braces and parentheses all occur in various domains - most notably
anything which processes or generates source-code.
Warmest Regards,
