Online docs using incorrect apostrophe character

Description (last modified by Ramiro Morales)

The online docs at http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial02/#intro-tutorial02
are using incorrect characters for apostrophes. The example url patterns

urlpatterns = patterns(‘’,
    # Example:
    # (r’^{{ project_name }}/’, include(‘{{ project_name }}.foo.urls’)),

    # Uncomment the next line to enable admin documentation:
    # (r’^admin/doc/’, include(‘django.contrib.admindocs.urls’)),

    # Uncomment the next line to enable the admin:
    (r’^admin/(.*)’, admin.site.root),
)

cannot be cut and pasted because they are using ’ instead of ' to delimit their strings. You'll notice that the code color-coding is incorrect. A search for ".. parsed-literal::" in the source turned up five hits; these four files show this problem with delimiters:

docs/intro/tutorial02.txt
docs/howto/deployment/modpython.txt
docs/howto/custom-template-tags.txt
docs/howto/apache-auth.txt

It looks like parsed-literal is the wrong tag to use here.

Actually, the guilty here is SmartyPants, parsed-literal is innocent.
