I really wish some people would research their questions before they post the same questions over and over again on forums. a href=”http://tinyurl.com/ct2gxu”>Common sense /a>, guys.

Why do right angle brackets (chevrons) not come up? That really bothers me.

They are called guillemets. ( , >)

The at sign or @, also called the ampersat, apetail, arroba, atmark, acosta, at symbol, commercial at, curlat, or monkey tail, is formally an accounting and commercial invoice abbreviation meaning “at the rate of” (e.g. 7 widgets @ $2 = $14). In recent years, its meaning has grown to include the sense of being “located at”, especially in email addresses and social media. There is no universal word for this sign.

The section sign (§, Unicode U+00A7, HTML entity §), also called the “double S”, “sectional symbol” or signum sectiōnis, is a typographical character used mainly to refer to a particular section of a document, such as a legal code.[1] It is frequently used along with the pilcrow (¶), or paragraph sign. When duplicated, as §§, it is read as the plural “sections” (§§ 13–21), much as “pp.” (pages) is the plural of “p.”. The likely origin of the section sign is the digraph formed by the combination of two S’es (from the Latin signum sectionis).
Like the dagger (†) and double dagger (‡), it is also sometimes used to link to a footnote where the asterisk (*) is already in use on a given page; however, these usages are declining in favor of numbered footnotes, usually linked by a superscripted and/or square bracketed number.

@thatzooma - so we are going to name everything according to Microsoft now? Really?
Ok - let the braces {} become “left and right curly brackets”
the underscore _ a “low line”
the caret ^ a “circumflex accent” - thanks frenchies…
but the caret counter the Caron, will stay the caron… ˇ … i love their consistency…
