The drum for the Shuttle teleprinter replaces 10 ASCII special characters with symbols that are more useful to the Shuttle, such as Greek letters for angles.

Specifically, the characters ;@[\]^!"#$ are replaced by 聁~αβā.

Sigh... This ancient printer could render them, but apparently the Chrome browser on my modern Android cannot.
