then you wont be able to use dictionary lookups as when u send a keysym the
word is finished. sending strings means you are sending parts of a word. just
keep the quotes. i am entirely baffled why you want to remove them - they have
specific functionality and meaning that "makes things work". they were intended
to be there in this use case so keep them :)
