In RISC OS:
Oregano = superscript TM
Fresco = space
WebsterXL = bullet point

!!

According to O'Reilly the numeric entity 153 is superscript TM but it is
not formally defined under HTML. There is no, according to O'Reilly, named
entity for TM.

In Oregano it produces &tm;
Fresco = &tm;
WebsterXL = the f symbol like that used in maths to do with
differentiation.
