Nick, why don't you use labels for that?

select atomno=4; label +    # or label "+"
set labelOffset 0 0  # if you want them right over the atom center
font label 22 serif bold
color label orange

Unicode characters may be used in labels and in echos (3D-positioned echos are 
another 
choice, by the way, like this:

label "\u21D2"

where 21D2 is the hexadecimal Unicode for a double right-arrow; in my tests, 
not all 
unicode characters are allowed, but many are.
