Am I supposed to be seeing lots of boxes here?

For once in Unicode's sad history, yes.

Yeah, it's the syntax "□A" for "there is a Gödel-numbered proof of A", and "|-" for "the following is provable".

Or is your browser showing a lot of junk instead of things that cash out to "it is provable that (a Gödel-numbered proof of A) implies B"?

Assuming the only operators you used were <box>, "|-" and "->" it all came through.
