I sometimes use an equivalent function which I just call q() to make for even less typing :-) However unless I am constructing a complex string, I tend to just embed the quotes as I go. With AppleScripts, I always test them in the AppleScript editor first. Then copy them into Rev. If they are long, I put them in a field or custom property and just use them from there. If they are short, I use Rev's Script editor's "Paste as formatted string" menu item to insert the script with all it's quotes. > Am interested as it is one of the first functions I started to use as > a library.
