Three string types

Posted: Mon Nov 08, 2010 4:25 pm

In Universe Basic syntax, there are three characters which define strings: Single Quote, Double Quote and Backslash. I would like to see:

A = 'HELLO'
A = "HELLO"
A = \HELLO\

My [Syntax] section is below, but no combination of character assignments seems to work. Does Textpad have a hard limit of two string definitions?

Thanks for any help...
