Is there any way to have SHIFT + CTRL + - create an em dash in Pop_OS?

I know there is the option to use CTRL + SHIFT + U followed by 2014 + ENTER. But that’s way too long. And in keyboard settings it seems that I can only add a Composer Key? where I then have to, again, type in a numerical code. Any way to have the straight keyboard shortcut like in MacOS?

EDIT: Per two suggestions below, Command Key followed by 3 regular dashes works to create an em dash.

afa setting my own combo, I discovered AutoKey as a possible solution. Haven’t tried that route yet, though.

    Ah, thank you! You helped me understand how that chart works

    EDIT: Hey thank you, that worked for the immediate challenge — and now I have a use for the caps lock key

      I use the Menu key for my compose key, since I never used it for anything and it’s conveniently right next to the right Ctrl key.
      BTW if you want to see the combos that are possible with the Compose key, look in /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose
