I use EMS PostgreSQL Manager to edit PL/PGSQL functions. It automagically
escapes the quotes for you as you write functions, so you can just write:

SELECT 'sometexthere'::text;

instead of having to do:

SELECT ''sometexthere''::text;

It's a major time saver when developing. You gotta pay money for PG
Manager,
but it's worth it and has Windows and Linux versions.
