+In the C locale, the output of GNU programs should stick to plain
+ASCII for quotation characters in messages to users: preferably 0x22
+(@samp{"}) or 0x27 (@samp{'}) for both opening and closing quotes.
+Although GNU programs traditionally used 0x60 (@samp{`}) for opening
+and 0x27 (@samp{'}) for closing quotes, nowadays quotes @samp{`like
+this'} are typically rendered asymmetrically, so quoting @samp{"like
+this"} or @samp{'like this'} typically looks better.

 
 

-The @uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/, Gnulib} @code{quote} and
-@code{quotearg} modules provide a reasonably straightforward way to
-support locale-specific quote characters, as well as taking care of
-other issues, such as quoting a filename that itself contains a quote
-character.  See the Gnulib documentation for usage details.
+It is ok, but not required, for GNU programs to generate
+locale-specific quotes in non-C locales.  For example:

 
 

-In any case, the documentation for your program should clearly specify
-how it does quoting, if different than the preferred method of @samp{`}
-and @samp{'}.  This is especially important if the output of your
-program is ever likely to be parsed by another program.
+@example
+printf (gettext ("Processing file '%s'..."), file);
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Here, a French translation might cause @code{gettext} to return the
+string @code{"Traitement de fichier
+@guilsinglleft{}@tie{}%s@tie{}@guilsinglright{}..."}, yielding quotes
+more appropriate for a French locale.

 
 

-Quotation characters are a difficult area in the computing world at
-this time: there are no true left or right quote characters in Latin1;
-the @samp{`} character we use was standardized there as a grave
-accent.  Moreover, Latin1 is still not universally usable.
+Sometimes a program may need to use opening and closing quotes
+directly.  By convention, @code{gettext} translates the string
+@samp{"`"} to the opening quote and the string @samp{"'"} to the
+closing quote, and a program can use these translations.  Generally,
+though, it is better to translate quote characters in the context of
+longer strings.

 
 

-Unicode contains the unambiguous quote characters required.  However,
-Unicode and UTF-8 are not universally well-supported, either.
+If the output of your program is ever likely to be parsed by another
+program, it is good to provide an option that makes this parsing
+reliable.  For example, you could escape special characters using
+conventions from the C language or the Bourne shell.  See for example
+the option @option{--quoting-style} of GNU @code{ls}.

 
 

-This may change over the next few years, and then we will revisit
-this.
