What are other symbols like → that can be used on StackExchange sites? Where is a list of all of these stackExchange symbols or can somewhere share that list here? Can symbols be added to the StackExchange post repository.

    This question appears to be off-topic because it is about Unicode characters that are not specific to the Stack Exchange network.

    var s = ""; for (var i = 0xff; i < 0xfffff; i++) s += String.fromCharCode(i); s. This and more!

  • @Rosinante Thanks now I know that it takes 33 minutes to show all displayable characters in the unicode range 0 - 65536 (49571 characters) at one character per frame. Commented Nov 10, 2013 at 0:55

  • Wikipedia List_of_Unicode_characters is hard to search... is there another site where I can search for and copy the Unicode directly for pasting into a StackExchange post? Commented Nov 10, 2013 at 0:49
  • fileformat.org is searchable by character name.
