John,

Yes you largely get my drift indeed.
It looks though that in emails I receive from a source lately the endash is a sign of one character, if you get my drift, so how do you creat it?

Dear Tony,

 There's the en dash and the em dash.  The en dash is a hyphen the
width of the letter n and the em dash... well, you get the idea.

 If you're writing a HTML document, use the HTML entities &ndash; and
&mdash; for en and em dash respectively.  Hope this helps,

later,
John
