Hi David,

I'm not sure there's a good way to fix this.  Maybe this?

   'SEAO - Résultats d'"'"'ouverture (002).pdf'

I realise there's a lot more conversation that occurred on this, but the
idiom to write a ' within a '-quoted string is to exit it, escape a
quote with backslash, and then re-enter.

    echo 'foo'\''bar'
