An iconic notation for representing combinators is introduced, and the extensions of combinatory logic needed to work with it are developed. It is shown how entire sets of combinators can be defined by just two rules for constructing and interpreting iconic names. The two rules — a general abstraction rule and a general reduction rule — are the only ones required to perform variable substitution. It is suggested that techniques using the results reported here may have advantages over other combinator-based methods for implementing a functional language.
