Quotation marks we’re historically used …
Meh. I am in my late sixties, and that was never proper usage. These people were merely always illiterate.
My first computer was an eight-bit system running the CP/M operating system on an Intel 8080 processor, in about 1980. The system was some $900. I bought a Whitesmiths C compiler for it for about $300, and it came with the Wordstar text editor.
