Insert a nonbreaking minus sign?

Does anyone know how to insert a nonbreaking minus sign? Like if an author
says -7 to -3 days and you want to keep the minus always with the 7.

Actually, the true minus sign (which is wider than a hyphen, more like an em
dash, and the same width as the plus sign) is naturally nonbreaking; find it
at 2212 in the Mathematical Operators character subset).

Yup! That worked properly. I typed 2212 in my document and then hit ALT+x
and it converted the 2212 to a true minus sign.
Thanks Suzanne.

I saved it as autotext using the minus key (-). Hit F3 and it inserts the
non-breaking symbol
