One of the strangest things happening right now.

In BBEdit, I am editing my zsh aliases. Some are playing out very strange. The second double quotations are changing the type to Smart Quotes.

alias dothis="echo 'I want to eat fish'”
                                       ^
                                       |
                                       |

It only happens in BBEdit, and not in TextEdit, Mail.app, or Notes. I've checked System Preferences > Keyboard > Text and have tried toggling the Use smart quotes and dashes and it simply won't fix.

Any insight as to what could be the problem or how I can chase this down? It's an odd one.

This is a BBEdit preference for file type: Use Typographer's Quotes, found in the gear top left.

This is set for file types in Preferences > Languages.
