I'll just put a space in between each character:

& # 9 6 5 4 ;

Remove the spaces and you get the play symbol you see above. - Charlie

This makes it pretty easy to do things like stick a "play" symbol (a right facing triangle) inside a button:

{ "name":"labelTest", "type":"Label", "value":"▶", "size":32,}

Cool. Here's one link to start looking through unicode:
