Rowan- I just got a new computer, and it put me into something called Winword. All of my old stuff is in Word. I don't know what English is built in to it, but it doesn't like either my punctuation or grammar. Lots of underscores. I had tamed my old Word pretty well to my brand of the American language.
Comment by number 6- I think his high school may have "done him wrong." I buy a lot of books, some printed in UK, some in Canada and some in USA.
The quotations in tbe UK books are usually enclosed by a single (') rather than by (").
Example- 'It means you can have it in both ways.' Pike held Peel's formidable stare. 'Find out what I know and keep an eye on me at the same time.' Typeset at Lymington, Hants. The marks are outside the stop just as they are in books printed in USA and Canada, but marks are single.
