In scribble, when I put two dashes (or even three dashes) together, such as --, it comes out as one long dash. How can I make scribble keep them as two short dashes, such as in this documentation page?

My ultimate goal is to be able to turn them into flags for a command, such as -h and --.

verbatim Does keep the dashes separate, but it also changes the font, and makes a new paragraph, which I don't want.

If your only goal is to add documentation for command line flags such as -h and --, then you can use the commands:

The first will give you -- for longer flags, and the second will give you - for shorter flags. They will also change the font to match the terminal typeface for the docs.
