The registered trademark symbol is part of the Legal symbol set so you
need to change the symbol set from the default (PC-8) to legal, print
your character, then set it back.
Start with code to change symbol set to Legal
$1b (1U -or- chr("27"){"(1U"
then code for Registered Trademark Symbol
$5c -or - chr("92")
then code to send it back to PC-8 Symbol set
$1b (10U -or- chr("27"){"(10U"
So a print code to do this would be:
$1b (1U $5c $1b (10U
and a processing line to do it in a dummy variable would be:
a=chr("27"){"(1U"{chr("92"){chr("27"){"(10U"
I see you did try messing with other symbol sets.
8U = Roman 8 - not sure registered trademark is in that set.
19U = Windows symbol set - I'm pretty sure you can do it with that
one if you picked the right code for it, but I find legal symbol set easier
to work with (fewer values).
A good reference for symbol sets here:
