Tokenize lexemes (e.g., words, numbers, and periods). 1. Emit all quotation mark characters (single, double, primes, etc.). 1. Build an abstract syntax tree representing nested quotations. 1. Resolve as many ambiguous straight single quotes as possible. See the source code for details. # Build See [BUILD.md](BUILD.md) for detailed build instructions.
