Just a thought...what about paying attention to order first, but if you run
into a string starting with a ' that it get considered a name? For example:
ron vt 'dipshit ====> gets dipshit vt entered in the log
vt 'ron ====> gets ron vt entered in the log
vt ron ====> is still invalid
'ron vt ====> gets ron vt entered in the log
