unicode characters in operator name

[Greg]

Oh cripe...  Yet another reason not to use funny symbols-- even the developer can't tell them apart!

Yeah, I wanted a degree sign, but if it's all that subtle then I should probably reconsider the whole idea.

On the positive side, I know what ª is for now so today wasn't a complete waste.  =)

Thanks--
 Greg

No, it's a raised lowercase "o" used by convention to indicate gender of
abbreviated ordinals. You probably want U+00B0 DEGREE SIGN instead of
U+00BA MASCULINE ORDINAL INDICATOR.
