I recently used a punctuation mark in a document that I've always
understood to mean "this line of code continues on the next line". I know
I've seen it used as such elswhere and Authorware Script actually uses it
this way in code.
However the usage has been challenged so now I need to find some references
that support my usage, but I can't even name the darned thing!
The mark is looks like a capital L reversed and turned 90 degrees
counter-clockwise. It's entered alt+numpad0172
I've entered it here ¬, but I am not confident it will come through e-mail
correctly.
