perl-quote.el converts between
Perl single-quote '' and
double-quote "" strings in
Emacs. It's mainly a handy
way to swap between the two forms when there's no interpolations so single
quotes is enough, or when the backslashing is getting a bit out of control and
you want to go to the other form.
perl-quote.el is
free software (free
as in freedom), published under the terms of the
GNU General Public
License (v3 or up).
Download version 4 here, or in my miscbits-el collection:
perl-quote.el
(12k, and sig)
The sig file is a Gnu PG ascii armoured signature generated from my key.
There's lots of other string conversions which could be made, like going from
'' to q{} with an automatic choice of delimiter.
But plain single to double or back has been enough for me.
