Subject: [PATCH] mom-pdf.mom: Use '\-' for options instead of '-'

  The hyphen (-) is too short a dash to mark names of options and as a
symbol for standard input.

  An en-dash (\[en]) could be used, but '\-' ("minus" in the current
font!) is simpler to type and understand (and is thus used in the
traditional [nt]roff (guessing)).
