@MrWhite because it doesn't really matter. With Markdown, you can do - - - (note the spaces) or *** to get horizontal rules. ≥ 3 of any of hyphens/asterisks/underscores (with or without spaces in between) will do. Similarly for headers, there's the ##... syntax. That said, OP probably doesn't realise this.

| Jun 11, 2019 at 16:11 | comment | added | Maxim | @Harper Why does it have to be permanent? Can't you turn off the Smart Punctuation while using it, then turn it back on when done? | |
| Jun 11, 2019 at 3:42 | comment | added | Josh | Doesn’t it also convert three periods (...) into an ellipsis (…) ? | |
| Jun 10, 2019 at 22:39 | comment | added | Dennis Williamson | @scohe001: Curly quotes (or feathers/guillemets, etc.) is the only other option that this affects, AFAIK. | |
| Jun 10, 2019 at 16:05 | comment | added | scohe001 | What else does Smart Punctuation affect? I'd love to turn this off, but you should probably include the full effects so future readers don't get any nasty surprises. | |
