Does this make sense?

So this is a two part question.

Thanks so much . . . I know you brainyachs will have a solution.

I am using Sigil v 0.6.2

Good luck
How do you tell where the missing quote belongs?
"That's nice," she said.
"I'll take it from here."

'Smarty' can handle most straight=>curly conversions, but I don't think it comes with a Ouija board plugin
