Greater-than Above Rightwards Arrow Symbol

There is no legacy Windows Alt code for Greater-than Above Rightwards Arrow because it is not in either the OEM code page 437 or Windows-1252 tables. The Unicode codepoint is U+2978, which you can use as ⥸ in HTML, \2978 in CSS, or type with Alt+10616 on Windows (BMP only). If your keyboard has no numeric keypad, use the Character Viewer, the HTML entity, or copy the character directly. Greater-than Above Rightwards Arrow is outside both legacy code pages, which is why U+2978 is the identifier that works across Word, HTML, CSS, Python and JavaScript. Greater-than Above Rightwards Arrow has no named HTML entity, so use the numeric escape ⥸ or the hex escape ⥸.
