+@url{https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/html/users_guide/glasgow_exts.html#unicode-syntax,
+language extension}.  This extension enables Unicode characters to be used to
+stand for certain ASCII character sequences, i.e. → instead of @code{->},
+∀ instead of @code{forall} and many others.")
