What you are referring to are called "trigraphs".

The copy of the ARM I have lists the full set of trigraph
sequences (sec 16.2, p. 371).  I've duplicated it here for 
your convenience, where the trigraph is followed by the 
equivalent character:

  ??=  #        ??(  [       ??<  {
  ??/  \        ??)  ]       ??>  }
  ??*  ^        ??!  |       ??-  ~

I hope this helps (or at least was an answer to your 
question).
