On Linux, with a compose key, it's <compose><-><-><.> (at least with the settings I have, I don't think I overrode that one). "⸻" is even more fun. You can even make your own sequences, e.g. I've got <compose><O><h><m> for "Ω", and <compose><m><u> for "μ", very handy for electrical stuff like "160μA at 1.8V needs a resistance of 1.25kΩ, dissipating 288μW".

In pedantic tradition, I would like to gently remind you that there should be a space between a number and its unit, according to SI standard/NIST.
