How to split/parse lines into sentences outside two delimiters? I would like to split lines into sentences only if they are outside two quotation marks. Lines delimited by two quotation marks remain unchanged. |
Input Sample: |
Fred stopped, took off his coat and hung it on the back of a chair. He looked like a soaking wet cat. He looked over toward where I was and added: "Dave isn't happy. I think the other man isn't looking too friendly either." I said: "That's not like Dave. I wouldn't worry about it." Fred's tone showed that he was more than worried. He had always believed Dave wasn't dangerous until today. |
