Hai All,

Is there a standard emdash in ConTeXt? I.e. not depending on certain font
properties like:

	this is ---more often than not--- what I mean

For certain fonts '-' cannot be put together because it looks very odd when
the '-' is not exactly a line, but something more embellished.

If ConTeXt doesn't have this, how long should such an emdash be? I call it
an emdash but I think it probably is twice as large as that.

Groetjes,

Berend. (-:
