[FYI] {maint} docs: quote 'like this', not `like this'


From: Stefano Lattarini
Subject: [FYI] {maint} docs: quote 'like this', not `like this'
Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2012 17:30:02 +0200

* doc/automake.texi: Fix the reported warnings and informative messages
from automake to quote 'like this' rather than as `like this'.  Do the
same for comments and some text in our examples.
