is a commonly used symbol for "escape".
\xmark for mirrors \checkmark for , as they often go together.

Both Unicode characters are rather common and I found it surprising that Julia did not offer a way to input them intuitively.

`⎋` is a commonly used symbol for "escape".
 `\xmark` for `✗` mirrors `\checkmark` for `✓`, as they often go together.
