Howdy,
The Apple symbol is ancient; it foes back to the Apple ][ days. The
modern usage is to call that the key the Command Key which is
represetnted by the cloverleaf symbol.
By the way, I put together a package which contains images of several,
far from all, of the special Apple symbols. You can get it as
AppleKeys.zip from <http://homepage.mac.com/herbs2>.
Good Luck,
Herb Schulz
