U+2562 "╢" Box Drawings Vertical Double and Left Single Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+2562 "╢" Box Drawings Vertical Double and Left Single is a box drawing glyph used in text based interfaces and ASCII art to construct framed layouts, specifically representing a line that features a double vertical stroke on its right side and a single vertical stroke on its left, which then extends leftward from the line's intersection point with the top and bottom of the box. It belongs to the Box Drawing block in Unicode, designed to enable clear depiction of merged borders and corners in monospaced fonts, such as in console applications or early computer terminals. By combining double and single weight strokes, this character helps visually distinguish nested or priority elements within a complex grid or table structure, ensuring that the hierarchy of lines is apparent to the reader.
