First of all, sorry for having started this demoniac thread. It was against
my will -- I was probably possessed. >:-)

As someone correctly inferred, what I meant was the Italian "pentagramma":
the five horizontal lines used in musical notation or, by extension,
"musical notation".

BTW, "pentagram" in Italian is "pentacolo". BTW2, in Italy a five-pointed
star inserted in a circle is more associated with 1970's terrorism than with
Satan.

Well, following the example of:

        FB29;HEBREW LETTER ALTERNATIVE PLUS SIGN;Sm;0;ET;<font>
002B;;;;N;;;;;

You could define:

        F666;ANTICHRISTIAN ALTERNATIVE LATIN CAPITAL LETTER T;Lu;0;L;<font>
0054;;;;N;;;;0074;

Ciao.
