I'm not sure if this would go into the windows board or the general board, but anyways... Why in the world is there a '|' symbol when it's identicle to '+'?

they don't look identical to me. one is a long narrow beam, and the other is a small cross. very clear difference.
what?! it's a joke... about the symbols '|' and '+'... look at them as a symbol, they are not identical. i have -no- clue as to what you're talking about brewbuck.

I did.

Actually, you should deleted.
Also, I notied there is another duplicate: '&~' = '-'
yarin, my best guess, there are two sets of symbols for instructions to manipulate information, those used in the decimal system through out history in mathematics, and those designed to mimic logic gates in math/engineering.
it doesn't have to do with the fact that they overlooked duplicates or anything.
you'll find an equivalent logical operation for a whole lot of things.

They don't do the same thing, so they aren't duplicates.
Okay, I know quite well what '+' & '-' do. So please enlighten me on what '|' & '&~' do.
Ah ha! Simple's an editor.

Ohh, sting... So how come when I replace all my narrow beams with pluses, everything still works the same?
