You might want the vowels checked out on your keyboard, they seem unresponsive.

We realized we didn't have a succinct name for something today & wondered if anyone else had.
These are bracket ()
These are braces or curly brackets {}
These are quotation marks ""
But these are less-than, greater-than signs <>
Hardly rolls off the tongue, does it?
How about pointy brackets?
[EDIT] I mean when used as a pair (eg in HTML tags) - individually, the names are fine
What do you think/use?

Actually, I have TWO cats that are all white and have odd eyes (and a red one with normal yellow eyes)... You might think that I was collecting them...
Proof[^]
It's Ramses on the right, Curry is the red one and Iris on the left. She's the youngest of them, but she's regularly beating up the two guys...

What is this strange mark or number in their ears ?
We should ask Bob to put a cat smiley in here.

It was normal before to do that, and the numbers are registered in case it should be necessary to identify them. Nowadays, cats are marked with a chip under the skin - which is better, because it hurts less when they are marked.

I heard about the chip. Currently my kitties don't have, but i ever leave for somewhere with them(i really hope so) they will get one. I never saw or even heard about putting tattoos in their ears. We have no laws about identifying lost cats.

It's not a law here either, but good practise.
Another advantage with the chip over the tattoo is that the chip is always readable. The tattoo behaves just like a human tattoo - it flows out and becomes less readable over time...

According to what criteria?
We once had them arranged by spine colour. That was actually much nicer than the alphabetic arrangement...
But you are right; Right now we are "arranging"them according to the wind direction...

I've always called them angled or angle brackets in the context of a HTML tag for example.

Looks like angle brackets is the way forward - I'm just staggered it has taken me over 15 years of using them to realize I didn't have a name for them.
Also slightly embarrassed not to have thought of Googling
