Thank you for your indications. Two comments:

1) Clealry I prefer to leave the official bundle
untouched and add every modification in a personal
bundle. It is a bit awkward to change scope
selectors on a local basis, so I would really
like to follow the standard (and convince Allan to
change the standards if he thinks fit :). But I can
leave with double ticks, maybe I'll add a command
to insert single ticks...

2) I do not like accented utf characters.
Since my file is chock full of \commands anyway,
the improvement in readability is very minor.
On the other hand, frequently something
wrong occurs when reading the file with a bad
setting, or exchanging it with a colleague using
Windows 95 (serious) etc etc. If I were not happy with
ascii I would be using Office (not too serious).
