Chinese Quote Converter

Convert English straight quotes to Chinese curved quotes:

• "..." → "..." (U+201C / U+201D)
• '...' → '...' (U+2018 / U+2019)

Usage

Run the conversion script:

# Preview conversion (output to stdout)
python3 scripts/convert_quotes.py <input_file>

# Save to new file
python3 scripts/convert_quotes.py <input_file> -o <output_file>

# Modify file in-place
python3 scripts/convert_quotes.py <input_file> --in-place

Features

• Preserves code blocks (```, `, $$) by default
• Handles nested quotes correctly
• Detects English apostrophes (don't, it's) and leaves them unchanged
• Use --no-preserve-code to also convert quotes inside code blocks
