     Syntax: 'string'
 
     Strings can be specified as character expressions in the FORTRAN
     format. Single quotation marks within a string must be specified
     by two single quotation marks.
 
     For example, the command
 
          EA MESSAGE 'This ''string'' is okay.  '
 
     enters the given string into memory, starting at the address of
     the variable MESSAGE. Notice that the string includes embedded
     single quotation marks and trailing spaces.
