Please let me know if this works on OSX, (or if you have problems under
classic):
-- replace << and >> with option-\ and option-shift-\
set myUnicodeChar to IntegerToUnicodeChar(8482) -- trademark
set myUnicodeChar to IntegerToUnicodeChar(8226) -- bullet
property ksUsrfUtxt : ({{p:<<data utxt0000>>}} as string)'s text 1 thru -3
on IntegerToUnicodeChar(i)
set c4 to ({{p:i}} as string)'s text -2 thru -1
return ((my ksUsrfUtxt & c4) as record)'s p
end IntegerToUnicodeChar
