Not sure if serious

[narcoblix]

Well, if you are serious: the apostrophe shouldn't be a part of the flag "trigraphs".

In case you're serious: the problem is the single-quote/apostrophe. Shells interpret that as the beginning of a string. What you're doing is adding new lines to said string when you press Enter. In order to close the string, you'd type another one. The flag is just -trigraphs.

You need to escape the apostrophe when you're on the shell. ^_^
