More specifically, why does the style-sheet /usr/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/share/sgml/freebsd.dsl convert[1] example to ``example'' and not to "example"? Searching the archives, I found a thread from Feb 2002, Message-ID:<3C652A94.2070906@pittgoth.com> URL: , in which this was discussed, but not resolved. Is this a typographic convention, or simply a FreeBSD-doc-ism?
