I originally posted:

I have an alias file named "xxxxxxxx" which I flag by appending the
(character id 9664).
The name now looks like this:  "xxxxxxxx◀"

Can I depend on the Finder always displaying this character correctly
in any language?
(And, do you see a "BLACK LEFT-POINTING TRIANGLE" above?)

My final solution is to make the string
"xxxxxxxx" & (character id 9664) & (character id 9664) & (character id 9664) & (character id 9664)
a property. This removes it from the 'tell Application "Finder"' block and seems to work well.
