Title: Re: [htdig] Parsing search returns



Hi,

Thanks for the info, Jim. I'm using htdig-3.2.0. 
I followed the link you posted and indeed, it seems as though that "fix" isn't the best solution.

Is there any other way to get the em-dash to print instead of — in the search returns?

Thanks!

translate_* attributes are not available in the 3.2.x branch. The 
problem with the entity showing up in search results has been reported 
previously. See

A patch was submitted,  but it seems there was a question as to whether 
the proposed fix was really the best solution.
