Yoshiki,
Thanks for your prompt reply! I don't understand the inner workings of
fonts in Squeak but am happy to know that my guess was correct.

</span>Traditionally BookMorph title bar uses ◊, since when the internal<br>
encoding of the system was MacRoman. The character is called<br>
"Lozenge".<br>
<br>
When we changed the internal encoding to Unicode and I remember hand<br>
editing some of the fonts. I can't really remember what was going on.<br>
It is a bit funky that the code point is 179 yet showing Lozenge (i.e.<br>
the Accuny font has that glyphs at 179). From 3.8 and later versions,<br>
the code was carried over but now the default font uses Latin-1<br>
encoding, and code point 179 is shown ad upper script three.<br>
