ALCOR is an early computer language definition created by a consortium of manufactures formed to build an ALGOL machine after the ALGOL meeting in Copenhagen in 1958. ALCOR is a acronym, from ALGOL Converter.
ALCOR included an early "standard" character set for representing ALGOL 58 code on paper and paper tape:

The character set included the unusual "᛭" (iron/runic cross) character and the "₁₀" (subscript/lower 10) character.
