<h3 class="section">14.11 <code>@minus</code>{} (−): Inserting a Minus Sign</h3>
<p><a name="index-minus-852"></a><a name="index-Minus-sign-853"></a>
<a name="index-Em-dash_002c-compared-to-minus-sign-854"></a><a name="index-Hyphen_002c-compared-to-minus-855"></a>Use the <code>@minus{}</code> command to generate a minus sign. In a
fixed-width font, this is a single hyphen, but in a proportional font,
the symbol is the customary length for a minus sign—a little longer
than a hyphen, shorter than an em-dash:
<pre class="display"> ‘<samp><span class="samp">−</span></samp>’ is a minus sign generated with ‘<samp><span class="samp">@minus{}</span></samp>’,
`-' is a hyphen generated with the character ‘<samp><span class="samp">-</span></samp>’,
`—' is an em-dash for text.
</pre>
<p class="noindent">In the fixed-width font used by Info, <code>@minus{}</code> is the same
as a hyphen.
<p>You should not use <code>@minus{}</code> inside <code>@code</code> or
<code>@example</code> because the width distinction is not made in the
fixed-width font they use.
<p>When you use <code>@minus</code> to specify the mark beginning each entry in
an itemized list, you do not need to type the braces
(see <a href="itemize.html#itemize"><code>@itemize</code></a>).
