I guess it's a special kind of character called a ligature. They apparently are characters for combined operators. So in this case it seems to just be >>= all as one character?

It is exactly that. Some people really like them, others do not (me included). You usually need to go a little out of your way to get a font that supports ligatures for your editor.
