I know I've used the cloverleaf cmd key symbol in the past, but I'll be
darned if I can find it now.

I'm writing a short tutorial, and want to include instructions for CMD-H to
hide the active window. I'd like to use the cloverleaf symbol since that is
what shows up on the keyboard.

I have found a lot of 'apples' (•; opt-shift-K), but I'd still prefer the
cloverleaf. (And these are closed apples, not open as on my Pismo keyboard.)

I have searched through the character palette and the cloverleaf doesn't
show up. Then I used keycaps and browsed through all the old system fonts
(Chicago, Geneva, Monaco, Charcoal, Helvetica, Times, New York), and then
dingbats, symbol, etc., pressing all combinations of CTL, CMD, OPT, SHIFT.
No luck . . .

It -must- still exist out there . . . Doesn't it?

Anyone have the keys to the castle?
