 I just insert the Unicode characters directly in every place: sites, emails, texts, documents. I&#39;m doing this for years, with no compatibility problem. I&#39;m glad the<span></span> world is not ASCII anymore :)<div><div>

hello,<br>
<br>
for my part I use:<br>
<br>
- triple hyphen --- for em dash (which I convert to — with txt2tags)<br>
- single hyphen - for everything else (I don&#39;t make difference between hyphen and en dash)<br>
<br>
<br>
and of course double hyphen for strikethrough with txt2tags<br>
<br>
<br>
