Spell checking with em dashes in text ...

[Pinkham, Jim]

the spell-checker.

I find Ctrl+q, shift+q just as quick to produce an em-dash as typing two
hyphens, and Ctrl+q, shift+p faster than space-hyphen-space for an
en-dash.  But then, my pinkie is a lousy driver on the rough roads of
the top row ;-)
