German quotes are broken

[marekdedic]

In german (and a few other languages) the correct way to display (double) quotes is such that the first quotes are on the bottom like this : ,,text" (I am using commas here, but it shouldn't be commas...) . This utility breaks that by replacing "text" by ``text'' and so the quotes are always on the top.

Suggested solution: replace "text" by \enquote{text}. This solution needs the csquotes package, but quotes are then automatically rendered correctly based on the language settings in the document (babel or polyglossia).

Commas are not the correct quotes to use but "` and "' should be used instead. see https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anf%C3%BChrungszeichen#Kodierung
These might still get broken by the implementation though, have not tested it.

No, no, I meant I am using commas here in Github issues because you can't do proper german quotes here :)
I know about the "` and "' option, but that would make it so there are german quotes for everyone. the \enquote{} command does english or german quotes based on your languge settings
