"The UNIX Programming Environment" by Kernighan and Pike (copyright 1984
by Bell Labs) states the following:
"...Quotes of one kind protect quotes of the other kind:
$ echo "Don't do that!"
Don't do that!
$
..."
When I tried that (4.2bsd with csh) it did the following:
%echo "Don't do that!"
": Event not found.
%
Is this something different in the c-shell, or is this an error in
the c-shell?
