I can hardly blame you, though. I think English stole the word from French and then switched its spelling. :)
You may also want put quotes around "--" to make it clear that you are talking about it as punctuation, not using it as such in your sentence.
I read all the way through patch 6, and they all look good to me (though the "litteral" typo appears again later). I won't bother responding to each separately.
I do notice that your patterns are finding existing items marked with single-quotes. We may have other cases lurking that are not quoted at all (but should be). I think those could be a separate series, but if anybody wants to look for them, I think searching for "\--" will help (a literal double-dash needs that to avoid becoming an emdash).
