Omega character

[John Coppens <john jcoppens com>]

Hello people.

Of all things, I didn't think this would be so difficult. I want to
put a string on the screen with electrical units, and the Ohms-(Omega)
character. I normally write characters in the locale set and then call
g_locale_to_utf8, but I can't find the character Omega in the local set
(0xBD is occupied with the 1/2 symbol).

Which would be the most elegant solution to putting those special
characters not available in the locale?

TIA,
John
