P.S. I tried your script below. I haven't the slightest idea what the output means. As I said, a real web bullet is •.
A bullet can be written in valid html code in the real world in half a dozen different ways, and that would not be the preferred one either, but enough of this.
$f = "/tmp/bullet.html"; open F, ">$f"; print F '<html>•'; `open -a safari $f` ;
