Fwiw, that’s actually an En dash not an Em dash. You need a Shift in there to get an Em dash.

- latexr 1y agoIt depends on the keyboard layout. Some (US) do have it like you described, but others have the dashes reversed. Both make sense, to a degree. On the one hand you can argue that the em-dash—being longer—should require and extra key, but on the other hand it has more uses so it should not have the extra key to be more accessible.
- jandy 1y agoAh I hadn’t considered keyboard layouts.
