>             Project: Pig
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Thejas M Nair

> This fails -
> j = join l1 by $0, l2 by $0 using 'skewed';
> This works -
> j = join l1 by $0, l2 by $0 using "skewed";
> String constants are single-quoted in pig-latin. If the algorithm specification is supposed to be a string, specifying it within single quotes should be supported.
> Alternatively, we should be using identifiers here, since these are pre-defined in pig users will not be specifying arbitrary values that might not be valid identifier.
