If you're gonna allow multiple characters for these symbols then do go
with symbols suggest the action.  I kinda like -> for redirection although
=> is pretty good too.  I've also liked the MSDOS > for create and re-
direct versus >> which is redirect and append.  And the idea of multi-line
commands could be implemented by having all redirection characters be
preceded by a new-line char (and optional white space).  Multi-line 
commands would have to end with a special character that says 'more to
follow' such as +.  I don't know the ramifications of all this - I am 
not a Unixer.  So if it has potential to cause horrendous problems, be
gentle with me.  :)

Here's an example:

"command"  <"redirected stdin" +
=> "command with stdin from pipe" +
=> "command with stdin from pipe" >"redirected stdout"
