Leftwards Double Arrow-tail Symbol

There is no legacy Windows Alt code for Leftwards Double Arrow-tail because it is not in either the OEM code page 437 or Windows-1252 tables. The Unicode codepoint is U+291B, which you can use as ⤛ in HTML, \291B in CSS, or type with Alt+10523 on Windows (BMP only). If your keyboard has no numeric keypad, use the Character Viewer, the HTML entity, or copy the character directly. Leftwards Double Arrow-tail is outside both legacy code pages, which is why U+291B is the identifier that works across Word, HTML, CSS, Python and JavaScript. Leftwards Double Arrow-tail has no named HTML entity, so use the numeric escape ⤛ or the hex escape ⤛.
