Group commands that have quotations

Hey all,
I have been having this problem since I got into making group commands (you know, "_x domove getpos base" foreach idiots; and all that). My problem is when the command involves quotations. The game gets confused
if I put something like: "_x setunitpos "UP"" foreach idiots. I can't understand how to do this. Some1 plz help fast so I can complete some missions!
ChEeRs,

The solution's hidden in the Command Reference as an example, but not explained very well. Use curly brackets for code strings, not quotes:
{_x setunitpos "UP"} foreach idiots
Hope that moves you on!

You're right, the game doesn't like multiple quotes. Fortunately you can use curly brackets { } instead of quotes. Sometimes you need to experiment a bit to discover which set of " " need to be replaced with { } to make a line of code work.
Edit: Damn, too slow again.
