PHP SmartyPants is a port to PHP of the original SmartyPants written in Perl by John Gruber. SmartyPants is a free web publishing tool.
PHP SmartyPants translates plain ASCII punctuation characters into “smart” typographic punctuation HTML entities.

SmartyPants can perform the following transformations:
• Straight quotes ( " and ' ) into “curly” quote HTML entities
• Backticks-style quotes (``like this'') into “curly” quote HTML entities
• Dashes (“--” and “---”) into en- and em-dash entities
• Three consecutive dots (“...”) into an ellipsis entity.

What's New:
Corrected a bug that prevented special characters from being escaped.

Requirements:
PHP 4.0.5 or later.
