<font face="Courier 10 Pitch">If you're running Kile 2.1.0 there's
another work around.<br>
<br>
In Settings - Configure Kile - Latex - General, deselect
"Automatically insert opening and closing double quotes for LaTex<br>
<br>
Then, further down the Configure list, go to Extensions. Select
AutoBrace and click on the settings block to the right, in the
pop-up window, deselect "Automatically add closing quotation
marks"<br>
<br>
Hope that works<br>
