1961 programming book on the programming language Jovial. On page 7ff
is a character I've never seen before; I'm pretty sure it's
overprinting, but I'm not sure of what. I've attached an image to this
email message.
The text says "The metasymbol 𒀗 signifies syntactic equivalence,
while the colon
signifies concatenation and the semicolon ; signifies selection
between
adjacent elements."
