What does these symbols stands for?

I have no idea if this is even remotely relevant, but if you’re running Mac, those two symbols together are used to open a document, usually from within an application.

The loopy symbol is on Macs. It refers to the control key.
The O (as in the letter) would open something when used with the control key.

Edit: Lightning speed, @evegrimm! You’re too fast for me.

I’d agree. It looks like the open document command.

Which makes sense.
Back in the day, documents (physical ones) were sealed with wax and given a stamp (to make sure that the document gets to the recipient unopened).

So in this case, the wax stamp is giving (nerdy) instruction of saying “Open me!”

@Allie, haha! But you’re totally right, too. Your answer is indeed more complete than mine. :D

@Sarcasm, that sounds like a great interpretation of the symbols, and a great way to reintroduce wax seals.

I believe the command key symbol is supposed to mean “interesting feature” or something like that. It was added to the Mac keyboard to replace the Apple logo because Steve thought there was an overuse of the company’s logo. They chose that symbol which is now the command key on all Macs.

@TheCreative I like how you say Steve, like he is a lifelong friend of yours. ;-)
Or is he?

@rebbel Oh well I thought everyone would know who i’m talking about without needing to add the extra last name ;)

And yes he is.

@TheCreative I think you thought right.
He is, hé? Tell him rebbel said hi!

(Loved him in The Pink Panther.)

I like the Open Document idea, but also– the symbol actually is a Saint John’s Arms and was apparently used to ward off evil spirits and bad luck, so it could have something to do with that.
although it doesn’t look nearly old enough to be used in that context, so I’m going to go with Open Document.

@rabbitheart @rebbel @TheCreative @evegrimm @Sarcasm @Allie Oh, I didn’t know. I don’t have a mac so it’s really something new for me hah. Well thanks a lot.

Oh i don’t
know thats really had.. Answer mine please

I’m still wondering what a Mac is? Is that like a PC only exorbitantly expensive?

Yes and prettier looking.
