That's very nice, but I haven't the slightest idea what that means. All I know is that in grade 2 it should translate into two hyphens and it translates into only one. I can fix it for myself in my xdg file but it really represents a misbehavior in the "contracted English braille" facility.

In case it helps, here, copied by hand, is one sentence in which it occurs:

"My brother, oh my brother--are you indeed dead?"
