Random information on the term “FIST”:

The manicule, ☛, is a typographic mark with the appearance of a hand with its index finger extending in a pointing gesture. Originally used for handwritten marginal notes, it later came to be used in printed works to draw the reader’s attention to important text. Though once widespread, it is rarely used today, except as an occasional archaic novelty.

For most of its history, the mark has been inconsistently referred to by a variety of names. William H. Sherman, in the first dedicated study of the mark, uses the term manicule (from the Latin root manicula, meaning “little hand”), but also identifies 15 further names which have been used:

The last three Sherman labels erroneous, with indicule and maniple being mishearings or conflations, and pilcrow properly referring to the paragraph mark, ¶.

The symbol originates in scribal tradition of the medieval and Renaissance period, appearing in the margin of manuscripts to mark corrections or notes. The earliest book known to include manicules is the 1086 Domesday Book, where they are used for marginal annotations alongside other marks such as daggers. The age of the annotations is not known, and they may date to later than the 11th century.
