Package: elinks
Version: 0.10.4-7
Severity: normal

Steps to recreate:

1. Delete or move ~/.elinks/elinks.conf out of the way.

2. Run elinks.

3. In the keybinding manager, set any action to the ' key. Confirm when
warned that it's already in use.

4. Select 'Save', then 'Close'.

5. Exit elinks.

6. Run elinks again. At startup it will print a few messages about
parse errors.

I think this occurs because the ' key is not correctly escaped in
elinks.conf when autosaved (unlike the \ key, which is correctly escaped
with itself). If I edit elinks.conf between steps 5 and 6 and insert
a \ directly before the ' so it looks like:

bind "main" "\'" = "my-action"

instead of:

bind "main" "'" = "my-action"

there are no complaints and the key works as expected.

Thanks for maintaining this package.

Thanks,
Andrew.
