declaring double quotes in tm package R

Question

How do i declare a synonym for a double quote in the tm package ?

I want to declare a synonym for inches as "

I an trying to write something like this in my synonyms list

synonyms <- list(
list(word=""", syns=c("inch"))
)

but the three """ renders everything as comments , so how do i encapsulate a double quote within the double quotes in a tm package so that it reads " as an inch in the synonym list

Answer 1

You could use this instead:

synonyms <- list(
  list(word="\"", syns=c("inch"))
  )
