In most other modern display environments (e.g., with the correctlyĭesigned Windows and Mac TrueType fonts, but also on many classicġ970s/1980s video terminals, such as those by Siemens/Nixdorf and manyįor example, 0圆0 and 0x27 look under Windows NT 4.0 with the If displayed with old X fonts, but it looked rather ugly like This practice looked somewhat acceptable like

The old X fonts encouraged some authors of Unix software andĭocumentation to abuse 0圆0 together with 0x27 as directional Their symmetric shape got priority, except that this had not beenįixed in the X fonts until 2004 (somewhat earlier in the versions that Since 0圆0/0xB4 were defined to be accents by the modern standards, Pairs and have at the same time a different shape for 0x27 and 0xB4. One obviouslyĬannot have both 0x27/0圆0 and 0圆0/0xB4 as mutually symmetric glyph ISO 8859-1, which added a separate acute accent at 0xB4. Should already have been changed when the fonts were extended to cover “apostrophe (closing single quotation mark acute accent)”, but they These shapes were even sanctioned by an early US version of the ISOĦ46 standard (ANSI X3.4, also known as ASCII), which defined 0x27 as Unfortunately, the X Window System fonts contained for a long time

In some modern cultures, it has gained increasing recognition as a sign of disrespect, and has been used by music artists, athletes, and politicians. Historically, it represented the phallus. The gesture dates back to Ancient Greece and it was also used in Ancient Rome. Many cultures use similar gestures to display their disrespect, although others use it to express pointing without intentional disrespect toward other cultures. Extending the finger is considered a symbol of contempt in several cultures, especially Western ones. It communicates moderate to extreme contempt, and is roughly equivalent in meaning to 'fuck off', 'fuck you', 'shove it up your arse', 'up yours' or 'go fuck yourself.' It is performed by showing the back of a closed fist that has only the middle finger extended upwards, though in some locales the thumb is extended. In Western culture, the finger (as in giving someone the finger or the bird), also known as the finger wave, the middle finger, flipping someone off, flipping the bird, shooting the bird, the rude finger, the one-finger salute, the Trudeau salute (in Canada) (and other names), is an obscene hand gesture.
