Easy enough to map these using unicode-insert 0x4982, or whatever the 
right code is for those. (Not that!)

remapping the en dash

2010-11-22 Thread Eran Kaplinsky 
To get an en dash, we used to type --. But in the age of XeTeX etc, I'd
rather input – that would show up in LyX and in the output.
Is there an easier way to do this under Windows than Alt+0150 ?

Thanks,

Does the dash get handled correctly under line breaks? Worries about 
this are one reason we haven't started outputting the en-dash instead of 
just --.
