Hello,

If I use

\begin{itemize}
\item asdasd
\item dsfsdf
\end{itemize}

the items are with a bullet, but how can I itemize these two with a "-" (a small line)?

Thanks!

+12  A: 

One-at-a-time method:

\begin{itemize}
\item[--] asdasd
\item[--] dsfsdf
\end{itemize}

Set all first-level bullet-point to --:

At preamble,

\def\labelitemi{--}

Set the first-level bullet-point to -- only in one itemize environment:

\begin{itemize}
\renewcommand\labelitemi{--}
\item asdasd
\item dsfsdf
\end{itemize}

Note that there's no reason that it would have to be two dashes instead of one; this would work equally well as `\item[-]`.

@Tyler: `-` (hyphen) is shorter than `--` (en-dash).

@Tyler except that it is poorer typographical style, I believe.
