           Summary: CVS module should use " instead of ' for better other-
                    than-english language support ...

Being Italian, the character ' (apostrophe or single quote) is used in common language expressions. Since gideon uses the single quote for quoting cvs parameters as in "cvs -m 'my message goes here'" the command fails when I use some very frequent (and to me, obvious) words. I believe that:
1) gideon should use double quote (") for quoting messages for cvs command;
or 
2) the label in the cvs options dialog should be modified to explain to not to use some characters;
or 
3) a check should be done to replace all characters with escaped ones (that is replacing ' with \').

Hope it is clear enough ;)
