You would have to define what should happen in a case where you have
more than one single/double-quote delimited items on the same line:
do("this", "and", "that")
should it return true or false when testing for 'this", "and",
"that'? (it is within double-quotes)
And what should happen with mismatched quotes?
do("th/*is", "and", "th*/at")
It would also help to have a proposed function signature for the
functionality you want. Something like
def inside_quote(s, corpus, delims=delims):
-tkc
