Microsoft Office has this "feature", too.
LaTeX (and probably TeX alone, but I never use it without LaTeX) supports something similar, but AFAICT only in appropriate contexts (matching pairs of `` and '' are converted to the appropriate quote, as are ` and ', but they don't seem to affect "typewriter text", so the smart quotes stay out of my code snippets). Or maybe I just haven't noticed LaTeX munging all over my document.
