Documentation

The first apostrophe threw me off, and I realized it doesn't make sense for the second apostrophe to indicate the possessive case either. Then I realized the "apostrophes" are supposed to be single quotes around the word arrow. Nowhere else in the docs is the word arrow surrounded in single quotes, so I think they should be removed for consistency.
