+For users of text editors and pagers capable of piping its

+De-Re-Quote.  De-quotes the input and re-quotes (the output).
+Removes COUNT levels of C<E<gt> > email reply prefixes and
+re-adds them upon regenerating the diff.
+
+This switch is intended as a convenience for running inside a

+Note: this may over-add C<E<gt> > prefixes if some input lines
