Curly Quotes on Markup Render for Xelatex.

[thewatts]

On PDF output, code has curly quotes - creating syntax errors if the code is copied/pasted.

This issue was solved for pdflatex, but is currently still a problem for xelatex..

related: #638

I can reproduce this on OSX without special fonts, with

echo "    'hi'" | pandoc  -o my.pdf --latex-engine=xelatex -Vmonofont='Andale Mono'

[jgm]

I've found that

    \setmonofont[Mapping=tex-ansi]{$monofont$}

will solve the straight-quote problem. But it's not a complete solution, because the character escaping in the LaTeX writer assumes the tex-text mapping.

I believe this bug is fixed by commits 3f1937f and 9d9390a. Closing, but please test.

Hey @jgm !! I apologize for not responding sooner - I thought I had!
You were right about setting the monofont manually, works like a charm.

I don't have pandoc installed from source tho - I installed it via the pandoc website.

Working on getting it installed - will verify for ya!
