Description:
This style file makes the ASCII character `-' (hyphen/minus) active, so
that it guesses, whether to print as a minus sign or as a hyphen.
The used heuristic is simple: It turns to a minus in math mode, or if it
is followed directly by a digit. Two dashes between digits are interpreted as
number range dash, no minus is inserted there. In other cases, it is just
the plain old hyphen. The ligature `--' works as usual, but the em dash
`---' is broken. If --- is followed by a digit, it prints as --$-$<digit>,
in the other case it is an en dash followed by a hyphen. The emdash can be
produced with the command \emdash.
Know deficiencies:
* You can't produce an em-dash by the input `---', use \emdash instead.
* The input `- -' produces an error message and wrong output.
* A space after the minus sign is eaten in moved text (like inside the
table of contents).
Workaround for the later two deficiencies: -{}
