The same sign is used in Finland. I was puzzled why Apple computers used it but I thought it was just a coincidence...!

Never used MacDraw, but I remember installing and using ClarisWorks in middle/high school, I never did actual programming at that age, but I loved playing around with the Mac's word processing, drawing, painting programs, making little art layouts, outlines for class notes, stuff that that.

Sadly, programming wasn't really feasible on the Mac per se due to Bill Gates' manipulations:

Ah, the Saint Hannes cross, or sankthanskors in Sweden, or hannunvaakuna in Finland. It's not so much related to campgrounds, but to mark sightseeing spots in general.

This road sign sign means castle or other point of historic interest in Sweden.

Campgrounds have a normal descriptive “tent” symbol road sign in Sweden https://korkortonline.se/en/theory/road-signs/direction-sign...
