for the greaterthan (don't know the real name)
The offical ISO name is indeed "GREATER-THAN SIGN".
The Jargon File lists the following common names, in rough order of popularity:
< >
Common: <less/greater than>; bra/ket; l/r angle; l/r angle bracket; l/
+r broket. Rare: from/{into, towards}; read from/write to; suck/blow;
+comes-from/gozinta; in/out; crunch/zap (all from UNIX); tic/tac; [ang
+le/right angle].
In INTERCAL, it's called the "right angle".

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
