You're welcome.

| When '>' is used *as a bracket*, as in template code:
| 
| template <typename T> Y (T)
| 
| then it is correct to refer to it as 'angle bracket'.

But when you see the token ">", you cannot say that it is incorrect to
call it "angle-bracet" nor can you say it is incorrect to call it
"less-than".  There is just one *signe* token ">".

| As the foldoc entry indicates, 

   *Either* of the characters "<" (less-than, ASCII 60) and ">"
   (greater-than, ASCII 62).
