Wow, that was a quick reply!
Yes, indeed, I was putting a space between ] and (. I have corrected

Many Markdown implementations offer extensions which allow -- to be used

They aren't. You may want to check out
The only problem as I see it is that three dashes produce a long dash
and a hyphen rather than an em-dash, although two dashes seem to work
well. But investigating that will have to wait for the morrow!
I'm afraid you are confusing two different replies. SmartyPants looks for two
hyphens
