Ask HN: How do you call the "-" on a keyboard?

voidUpdate•58m ago

"Hyphen" in writing, "dash" or "tack" in command line

Ekaros•55m ago

Minus is an option. Especially on numpad.

sixthDot•48m ago

("-")

nhgiang•45m ago

Everyone else answered “what do you call…”. You are the only one answered OP’s question.

stop50•44m ago

Minus

rzzzwilson•41m ago

The "ASCII" page in the Jargon File gives a few names for "-". It even says that the official ANSI/CCITT names are "hyphen" and "minus".
