Dear Twayne: You may have seen my message to Jim. I can't make the
auto-correct method work, although I've done exactly what you say.
I've tried Help, but it is no help. I can't even find a ln-dash in
Special Characters, to insert it the long way. TS
It's a bit more complicated.
word--word[space]
will become
word[em-dash]word[space]
and
word[space]--[space]word[space]
will become
word[space][en-dash][space]word[space]
If this is not satisfactory, the smartest thing to do, probably, is to
use Tools->Macros->Record Macro to make a simple macro that uses
Insert->Special Character to insert an en-dash, and then use Tools-
>Customize->Keyboard to set some key combination to execute that macro.
