Alright, so I finnally switched over to linux, realized it had python preinstalled, opened that up in the terminal, and realized something. It requires me to use straight single quotes, but the ones on my keyboard are slanted. Is there anyway to work around this?

This sounds like an issue either with your editor or keyboard language setup.

I'm not sure about other countries, but in the UK I think you need code 40.

I don't think its the editor, since I wasn't using an editor, was typing right into terminal. How can I change my keyboard language to use single quotes?
