On the Mac, © is option-g (did that copyright symbol survive email?
Probably not...) KeyCaps can tell you that, and I believe there's a
similar utility on PCs.
But be careful, the Palm fonts don't necessarily have the same
character mapping...on the Mac and Palm both, copyright is 0xA9. But
the registered symbol (little r in a circle) is 0xAE on the Palm and
0xA8 on the Mac. Presumably Constructor does the right thing, but
double check the hex values to be safe.
