* * Em dash cleanup in pod/brian d foy2010-01-131-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I looked at all the instances of spaces around -- and in most cases converted the sentences to use more appropriate punctuation. In general, the -- in the perl docs seem to be there only to make really complicated and really long sentences. I didn't look at the closed em-dashes. They probably have the same sentence-complexity problem. I left some open em-dashes in place. Those are the ones used in lists.
