alltt in PDF to give ASCII 96 (backquote), not U+2018
When I convert the MWE below to PDF (using pdflatex) all occurrences of the backquotes cut-and-paste out of the PDF as U+2018 (a "curly backquote") rather than U+0060 (an ASCII backquote, or backtick character).
Is there any way of giving users of the documentation something that will cut-and-paste in the way I want? I do need it to be in the alltt environment (or similar) to get layout and ability to insert various commands.
documentclass{article}
usepackage{alltt}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
newcommand{bq}{char'140}
begin{document}
begin{alltt}
`hello`
bq{}worldbq{}
end{alltt}
For reference (I need it in the alltt environment or similar): bq{}hello, worldbq
end{document}
The usepackage[T1]{fontenc} is there because I attempted to follow the advice for the listing package in How to make sure I get regular ASCII quotes in code examples when using `listings`

Short answer:
`{}
If you want to use the T1 encoding, this works:
documentclass[varwidth=10cm, preview]{standalone}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage{textcomp}
usepackage{alltt}
% In T1, the backtick is encoded as "00
DeclareTextSymbol{bt}{T1}{"00}
begin{document}
begin{alltt}
This is a grave accent, or backtick: bt. So is this: `{}.
end{alltt}
end{document}
The T1 encoding has a different layout than ASCII.
If you want to use Unicode (whose first 128 characters are the same as ASCII), you can load fontspec and then either use symbol{"0060}, or turn off Ligatures = TeX.
`{}
still works in either OT1, T1 or TU, so it’s your best bet.

I'm not committed to T1 at all (as per question), that was included because of it seeming to be the right answer for the earlier problem.

You need upquote and textcomp:
documentclass{article}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage{alltt,upquote,textcomp}
begin{document}
begin{alltt}
`hello`
end{alltt}
