Silly question, but what language/shell are you trying to do this in?

Subject: [ale] string escaping?



Does anyone know how I can echo the following to the screen:



'text "something here"'




It may sound simple, however, I've tried doing it yet I can't.  I've tried
escaping the quotes/doublequotes in various ways unsuccessfully.   It keeps
interpreting them as a comman to run...


Thanks for any suggestions...!
