its not as easy as that. there is big case statement in jade which
looks character by character. the thing that does -- to endash is a
ligature in the font metric file...

looking at the source, has anyone tried adding "-" to this case
statement in Jade?

      case '\\':
      case '^':
      case '_':
      case '~':
        os() << "\\char" << int(*s) << "{}";
