Small pyuic bug report...
When using a tooltip string like
<string>it's the button</string>
pyuic will not escape the apostrophe, so the python result is
...( self.tr('it's the button') )
which doesn't compile. If I add a backslash
<string>it\'s the button</string>
then the backslash IS escaped
...( self.tr('it\\'s the button') )
which leaves me with the same problem as before.
The summary is that you can't use apostrophes in Designer, at least not in
tooltips (haven't checked elsewhere). Could they be escaped like backslashes?
