slash (punctuation)

Due to technical limitations, /. redirects here. You may be looking for Slashdot, the technology news web site. A slash or stroke, /, is a punctuation mark. It is also called an oblique, diagonal, separatrix, virgule, scratch comma, slant, or forward slash. It appears similar to a solidus or shilling mark, which is a separate character.
