About this symbol
On the original IBM PC of 1981, the smiling face was character number 1 of its built-in character set, known as code page 437. That is why Alt+1 still types ☺ in many Windows programs.
In Unicode names, “white” means drawn in outline; the filled version, ☻, is the black smiling face.
