KILL THE CAPS LOCK

To make an em-dash using a Mac, you have to do this: First, press the option key. Next, while holding down ?option,? press ?shift.? Now, while keeping those other two buttons pressed, hit the hyphen key. It?s too much?three keys for one mark. On a PC, there?s a handy ?shortcut.? Simply hold down ?alt? and then type 0151 on the far right number pad. (Next challenge: safecracking.) Although some popular word processing programs will automatically create an em-dash when you type two consecutive hyphens, that?s no reason to prolong the mark?s banishment from the board.
