Re: [Matlab-emacs-discuss] matlab-mode, electric-pair-mode and the single quote (')

[Peter M. <pet...@gm...>]

Hi Uwe,

Here are the original patches (matlab-elecp-patch and
matlab-elecp-patch_PHM) that would be applied to commit [5069e3c], and the
patch corresponding to the PR in question
(0001-fix-electric-pair-handling-of-single-quote.patch) to be applied to be
applied to [b700722].  Content-wise, the PR is the same as the two original
patches applied serially.

Here is the text of the original issue:
