Indeed. Anyway I already use \quote. :-) My question was rather about the apostrophe alone, like in "it's", or "don't", or "l'orange", "l'homme", which typographically should be like the comma (i.e. the single quotation mark). Therefore, you really have to use the symbol itself in the input.
Just write your own keyboard mapping – at least for MacOSX or Linux it’s rather easy. E.g. my usual keymap gives access to all accented Latin plus Greek and lots of other characters - I only keep forgetting what’s where, though, and it still contains some bugs ;-) Greetlings from Lake Constance!
