And in the TeX world, triple-dashes get replaced by em-dashes.
I haven't followed this discussion, but looking back on it, I'm a little
confused by what you seem to be proposing.
Generally accepted "typographically correct" page range delimiter is an
en-dash. If you want a rule, I'd say replace a dash or double-dash with an
en-dash?
Sorry if I'm missing something; been a long day.
