Code page 437 - Wikipedia

Almost the best Wikipedia article EVAR. What would be the best, would be if there was a link to the Wang character set which is cited as the inspiration for the smiley faces and such. Maybe if I could find such a page, it will tell me what the actual use for ⌂ was supposed to be.

<mallet>I wonder if *that* Wang had these characters?</mallet>

It'd be nice to find out, I'm suprised with all the old computer shrine sites nobody's scanned in and put up the manuals for one of those systems yet.
