It's not only about addpath, this is general octave syntax for strings.
A string can be single or double-quoted. The main difference is that
in double-quoted strings, octave will interpreted escaped characters
(like in C syntax).
For instance, "\n" will get you a string containing a single newline
character; '\n' will get you a string with 2 characters: a backslash
and n. As a consequence, backslashes must be escaped in a
double-quoted string, but not in a single-quoted string.
