Explanation
-----------
^ and ~ display differently depending on the font used. Sometimes they are
stuck to the top of the character box, while in other fonts they can be in
the middle. Therefore I tend to avoid them unless I'm using them for shape.
For position, " is near enough equal to ~, and A makes a good up arrow when
the whole box needs to be used. For a small arrow at the top of the box,
there isn't really any suitable character other than ^, but use with care.
I also added a credit to you.
Regards,
-Martin
