This is quite odd, my manpages for dctrl-tools show single quotes for
each example you list here. A quick grep through the 2.13.1 source tree
shows no reference to any apostrophes... Is anyone else able to see
this? From what I can tell, the manpages in their current form are
correct. Am I missing something?
