How do I add a dash in front of a line?

[naturalmechanics]

Consider the code:

li
                    span Adapt and evolve
                    — adjust forms as your business grows and requirements change.

I only want some style to be put in the span, and continue with the remaining text in the li tag.

If I use — or – I get:

`

.dub/packages/diet-ng-1.8.3/diet-ng/source/diet/defs.d(34,3): Error: "file.dt(25): "features.dt(25): Expected node text separated by a space character or end of line, but got 'mdash; adjust forms as your business grows and requirements change.'."`

`

If i use \- because a single dash is a inline D code, I get:

Expected node text separated by a space character or end of line, but got '\\- your website, landing pages, or customer portals\xe2\x80\x94for seamless data collection.'."

Please help.

The second line needs to add a "text node" specifier before the actual text payload:

li
                    span Adapt and evolve
                    | — adjust forms as your business grows and requirements change.

alternatively, you could also use the inline syntax:

li #[span Adapt and evolve] — adjust forms as your business grows and requirements change.
