Description
Hi Nikita, and thanks for Fira Code!
Would it be possible / easy to add support for language-specific ligatures for the Dafny language? I think the only two missing ligatures are :: (A notable difference from other languages is that the :: symbol is typically rendered as a centered dot in Dafny: ∙) and :- (to match :=). Context sensitive punctuation already takes care of :| it seems.
For reference, Dafny uses the following symbols:
->
~>
=>
-->
==>
<==
<==>
<=
>=
==
!=
:=
:-
:|
::
!!
||
&&
Thanks!

Research direction
Start by reviewing Fira Code’s existing language-specific ligature definitions and compare them with the Dafny symbol list in the issue. Done means adding the requested :: and :- behavior, including the centered-dot rendering for ::, without changing the existing :| handling.
