Hello everybody!

Is it possible to use dashes instead of bullets in listings?

Like in:

The compressed air system includes the following basic elements:
· VN110 stop valve
· F7 filter
· header

Can it be like:

No punctuation marks at the end of lines, as I learned here.

Thank you. ;-)

Yes.

If using MS Word to write a document, I might use bullet points.

But just dashing off a quick list, in plain text, the dash -- is available and sure to go through any email system.

Bullets are just dashes that someone had the time to make pretty.
