It is optional; read the router.py docs. Jonathan mentioned that in his post.

Unless I misunderstand the issue at hand here, seriously, I do not think this is web2py's scope to do this automatic mapping hyphens or dashes to underscores. Hyphen/dash is a minus sign. You can't define a Python variable or function that has a hyphen/dash. It's syntactically incorrect. I do not think it's web2py's place to automatically fix this syntactical error. (For one thing, it seems the side effect of this is that underscores are automatically converted to hyphens, which is clearly undesirable). Perhaps, the best thing is letting people turn on this mapping optionally.
