Is the ? a universal symbol for help info?

All,

A human-interface engineer asks:

  I was wondering if you could tell me if the "?" used for help is a
  globally known symbol?

The usage is a clickable graphic ? which brings up a help window.

Does anyone have experience with this?

Thanks for any info,
Andrea

"A bibliophile is a lover of books; a bibliomane, a wildly enthusiastic
collector. An abandoned fanatic, once he succumbs to bibliolatry,
graduates into a bibliomaniac. While a bibliomaniac's spouse might easily
become a bibliophobe, his arch nemesis would be a biblioclast: a
destroyer
of books." -- Bill Strubbe, A Bibliophile in Britain
