n. An asterisk (see also splat , ASCII ). Oh, you want an etymology? Notionally, from I regret that I have only one asterisk for my country! , a misquote of the famous remark uttered by Nathan Hale just before he was hanged. Hale was a (failed) spy for the rebels in the American War of Independence.
