Unicode Version 17.0

U+2558 "╘" Box Drawings Up Single and Right Double is a graphic symbol used in text-based user interfaces and terminal applications for forming box and line diagrams, specifically depicting a junction where a single vertical line extends upward from a double horizontal line extending to the right. This character belongs to the "Box Drawing" block in Unicode, which was designed to replicate the characters found in IBM PC code pages and other legacy character sets, enabling the creation of clear table structures, borders, and flowcharts in monospaced environments. Its directional attributes indicate that the vertical stroke above the intersection is a single line, while the horizontal stroke to the right is a double line, with the left and downward directions being open or absent.
