Where might I find a complete list of the PHP symbols? (... in one place?)

I can't find anything like that on PHP.net/docs.php.  Google didn't help,
either!

For example, I often find myself reading a PHP book, that doesn't fully
define symbols, utilized in its code examples.  Say I wanted to look up
(i.e. define) what the following mean ...

    =>                        (e.g. Is this the same or different from >=
? )
    :$variableName    (e.g. What's the colon signify?)

These symbols may be buried in various categories; but, are they listed
somewhere all together - for reverse lookup?

It is in the manual, just grouped by type. The : you mention is part of the ternary operator (?:), which is described under the language reference section. You pretty surely will be able to find the other "symbols" explained there too.
