It is a string in both fundamental-mode and org-mode, that's what I'm checking. But it is a punctuation character in other modes and maybe in our "minds". I agree the intuition is misleading here, because ' is a punctuation character. > In any event, C-c " is likely to pose the same problem as C-c '.

Feel free to correct me > if I'm wrong. It encourages me to find a completely different solution. The one I have in mind now is to use C-c : (and to move the current C-c : binding to C-c C-:). The reasoning is that we have - fixed-width - example blocks - source code blocks which often achieve a similar goal: to present some code snippets. Source blocks are more powerful than example blocks which are more powerful than fixed-width regions. But you can currently edit them all with C-c '. So C-c : would call org-edit-src-code and C-c C-: would convert the region to fixed-width region. What you (and others) think? Eric, what's your take on this, as the "father" of C-c ' ? -- Bastien
