The attached post Show archive.org snapshot shows some alternative ways to define Strings in Ruby using the percent notation. This can be useful when you'd like to use quotes (") or single-quotes (') in your strings:

%(any alpha-numeric)
%[char can be]
%%used as%
%!delimiter\!! # escape '!' literal
%( (pa(re(nt)he)sis) ) #=> "(pa(re(nt)he)sis)"
%[ [square bracket] ]  #=> "[square bracket]"
%{ {curly bracket} }   #=> "{curly bracket}"
%< <pointy bracket> >  #=> "<pointy bracket>"
%< \<this works as well\> >  #=> "<this works as well>"
