U+241D "" Symbol for Group Separator is one of the graphic symbols in the Control Pictures block, representing the ASCII control character Group Separator (GS), which carries the hexadecimal value 1D. This character was originally used in data transmission protocols to logically separate groups of data, such as sections of a file or distinct records, functioning as a structural delimiter between the end of a subgroup and the beginning of the next higher-level logical unit. In modern computing, it appears primarily in documentation, debugging tools, or legacy system interfaces where it visually denotes the presence of this nonprinting control code.
