"Read additional options from <file> with each option appearing on a
separate line optionally followed by space and an option value. Empty
lines and lines starting with \cb{#} are ignored. Option values can
- be enclosed in double quotes (\cb{\"\"}) to preserve leading and
- trailing whitespaces as well as to specify empty values. If the value
- itself contains trailing or leading double quote, enclose it with an
- extra pair of double quotes, for example \cb{\"\"x\"\"}. Non-leading
+ be enclosed in double (\cb{\"}) or single (\cb{'}) quotes to preserve
+ leading and trailing whitespaces as well as to specify empty values.
+ If the value itself contains trailing or leading double quote, enclose
+ it with an extra pair of quotes, for example \cb{'\"x\"'}. Non-leading
and non-trailing quotes are interpreted as being part of the option
value.
