Campbell Barton c90e8bae0b Cleanup: spelling in comments & replace some use of single quotes
Previously spell checker ignored text in single quotes however this
meant incorrect spelling was ignored in text where it shouldn't have
been.

In cases single quotes were used for literal strings
(such as variables, code & compiler flags),
replace these with back-ticks.

In cases they were used for UI labels,
replace these with double quotes.

In cases they were used to reference symbols,
replace them with doxygens symbol link syntax (leading hash).

Apply some spelling corrections & tweaks (for check_spelling_* targets).

Blender Dev Tools
#################

This repository is intended for miscellaneous tools, utilities, configurations and
anything that helps with Blender development, but aren't directly related to building Blender.

Some of the tools included may be used stand-alone, others expect Blenders source code to be available.


Usage
=====

While this is a stand-alone repository,
some of the scripts which access Blenders source code assume this repository will be located at
``tools`` within Blenders source code repository. At some point this may be included as a submodule.

Some tools also rely on the ``blender`` binary, this is assumed to be located at: ``../../blender.bin``.
*The root directory of Blender's git repository*
