Thanks Pascal,

I thought that the index would be useful as it would allow recovery of the 
symbol from the list of all symbols.

    0 s: 0 NB. cardinality of the symbol list
10
   _6 s: i. 10  NB. list of symbols
` `alpha `beta `😀 `gamma `delta `one `😀 `ఠ `a
   _6 s: 3  NB. retrieve the 3rd symbol
`😀

Bill also pointed out that it may be useful to know the type of the label for 
the symbol, which I now see would distinguish symbols that look the same but 
may be different in the type that defined them.

    _6 s: 3  NB. retrieve the 3rd symbol
`😀
  3!:0 each 5 s: _6 s: 3  NB. type of label is literal
┌─┐
│2│
└─┘
    _6 s: 7  NB. retrieve the 3rd symbol
`😀
   3!:0 each 5 s: _6 s: 7  NB. type of label is unicode4
┌──────┐
│262144│
└──────┘
   
Cheers, bob
