Re: Swastika to be banned by Microsoft?

[Wm Seán Glen]

A rose by any other name

The figure has other names besides swastika. In heraldry, The figure is
called a fylfot or sometimes a gammidion (four gammas arrayed). It has many
variations as to orientation, direction, and using bent arms or knees as the
gamma. It's common to see an array of three as in the arms of Sicily or the
Isle of Man.
