3. Do the same for the (-) looking character in front of "yesno" with an actual dash.

Thanks again my dear friend.
As dialog examples come from the net, I still expect for a script solution for a number of examples from the net.
In the above example, one issue is font, another is a character.
For 10-20 examples it takes to much time for manual edition of each .

Any idea for a working script ?

as more examples to come for tests , as I need to learn dialog
