Ps

Opening (start) characters, such as a left curly bracket ({).

Pe

Pi

Initial quote marks. Be aware that in some languages, an initial quote mark might actually be in the set of closing characters (Pe). As an example, quotations in Swedish begin and end with a double closing quotation mark (ȝ). In that case, the initial quote mark would not be found by searching for Pi.
