Em- and en-dashes can't occur right next to a word

      Given the following wiki source:

      Testing -- en
Testing-- en
Testing --en
Testing--en

      You get the following output:

      Testing – en
      Testing-- en
      Testing --en
      Testing--en

      Only the first one is rendered correctly because the en-dash is not rendered if it occurs next to a word. This hinders using en-dashes where you normally would, like in a range (e.g. 1-5pm).

      The same problem happens with em-dashes, using three hyphens in the markup.
