Just a quick note re the proper character to use in representing trademarks. The discussion has been about 'the' trademark character. There are actually two trademark characters. Registered trademarks are properly represented by the glyph composed of a superscript capital R inside a circle (x00AE in Unicode Latin-1, or ®). Unregistered trademarks use the superscript TM (x2122 in Unicode letterlike symbols, otherwise dependent on os/program/font support -- ™ seems to be the most common). The TM symbol is supposed to used for marks that are have not yet been officially registered, but is often used for trademarks that are so weak that they would be denied official registration if the application were made. Companies use it anyway in the hope of discouraging others from using the same word or phrase. ====================================================================== Paul M.
