The reason why I say this, is for instance, in our company, we build ads, and it is necessary to do lists, and tm's etc
a few more usefull codes:
00AE registered sign 2122 trade mark 2022 bullet etc..

Jared you might want to file a bug report requesting GU Charmap support be built into Inkscape. Gucharmap is a Unicode Character Map program for Gnome and it is what various other programs use to make it easier to insert special characters. With any luck opening up gucharmap and cutting and pasting the characters into Inkscape should work as well but in the long run it is something that should probably be possible directly from Inkscape.
