Now...if someone could provide a similar & easy workaround for converting the UK standard of single quotes to US standard double quotes -- without "harming" single apostrophes -- I'd be doubly (tripply? quadrupally?) grateful

MobilRead is a true wonder for those of us who love books...thanks to all!!
I've been editing PD books for my e-readers for some time, using many tools including Sigil, Calibre and a number of other editors. Unfortunately, I haven't discovered any way other than time-consuming manual labour to convert single quotation marks to doubles without affecting apostrophes or similar punctuations.

Sorry...
