Hi David
this is my preference
In the D-spec define a constant

D Quote c Const('''')

Then in the H-specs
Myvar = 'This is a sentence of around 130 ' +
'characters containing apostrophes an' + Quote +
' all';

Hi all,

In Free form,

How do I write :

MyVar = "This is a sentence of around 130 characters containing
apostrophes an'all"

Message file is not a possibility for me.

I don't want to put it in a constant as I think it will never be reused and
I cannot give it a meaningful name.


Thanks
