@norbert @jwildeboer @larsmb @evan An em dash is not supposed to be surrounded by space characters however. Also, I can say something is #Kafka-esque and have it show up in #Kafka where people are more likely to look.

@jwildeboer @larsmb @evan Othrography online varies a lot. In French it's common to put two spaces after a period. Some people in English forget to put a single space after one. What I'm trying to avoid is a hashtag unexpectedly consuming more text than it should, and in my view, the dash is commonly used as a word boundary.
