Description
When string values (in my case they were from a RecordToken emitted by the EML actor) include single quotes (or apostrophes) the generated R code was not escaping them and execution would halt when the R process raised an error.

R allows the use of single or double quotes to indicate character strings. The RExpression actor was using single quotes instead of double. It now uses double quotes to indicate the start and end of character strings and therefore single quotes can be included in the character strings without error.
