Subject: emdash and endash
Date: Sun, 17 Apr 2011 20:04:23 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <BANLkTikWno+de5SdffP0C3EExWfOVhzXCA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

1 dash: - 2 -- 3 ---
1 dash: - 2 – 3 —

When I write in ASCII, I notate emdash like "--".  I think this is standard.
But in HTML export, that is an endash.

I never use "---" in ASCII.  Is there a way to make "--"
export as emdash in order to be consistent with ASCII?

I wonder if we could control this with a variable.  Perhaps
with the variable set, \-- can be an endash and -- can be an
emdash, or something like that.

Thanks.

Samuel
