Subject: Re: Typesetter's question




Hello everyone, 

Thank you for your responses.

I guess typesetters just call it the at.

Like, hand me an at please.

I thought there was a long word for it , but I guess not.

I know what it means and is used for.

I just looked up the character list for the latest version of Unicode.
They know about "ampersand" for "&", and they refer to the "@" sign as "at".
French use "arrobas" or "arrobasque" for it, that's perhaps the word you are
thinking to. Note that French call the "&" "eperluette" (starting with an e
acute).
