Re: HOW Do I Use ' as a literal in a string?

[Doug Nichols <drnichols@ATT.NET>]

        it would be four ticks, like this, ''''   plus, you'll need a 
concatenation
operator like the ||.

Error in include file "/home/FSDEV/user/sqr/ascftp_hypr.sqc" on line 23:
   (SQR 4008) Unknown function or variable in expression: upldprd'''

   let $user_pwd = 'user '''upload''' '''upload'''  '

   I want  $user_pwd to = user 'upload' 'upload'

   I am writing a unix script and I need those ' (tick/apostroph) mark to be
apart of the string and for the life of me I thought the 3 ticks would work
but it dont.

PLEASE HELP ME with this VERY STUPID Question


Thanks
