Joe: Not "squiggly", just "single". For the corresponding double quotes, use "“" and "”". If you paste word processor text into Mudcat messages without replacing the single and double quotes with HTML escapes, they'll get blitzed on submittal, because they're not the ASCII apostrophe and straight double quote characters.

There are also single and double angle quotes, and single and double bottom-aligned quotes, all in left and right variants. HTML has named escapes for all these quote characters.
