TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I use plain old periods myself and have rarely seen anything else
other than occasional use of underscores or hyphens.
The reason I ask is that one of our engineers is updating our TOC
generator and asked me what characters people typically use for
leadering. (Imagine that, an engineer actually asking about what
writers want!) Anyway, I told him my thoughts and said that I would
take a poll on TECHWR-L.
Thanks in advance for your input.
