No argument with what John says below. I should have noted same. The symbol, the word Copyright and the abbreviation Copr. are all exactly equivalent. The symbol and the word are commonly used in combination, but that's redundant. -- http://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap4.html
It's not a problem with EBCDIC; it's a problem with "poor" (as opposed to "rich") character sets. ASCII (as opposed to Unicode) does not have a copyright symbol either.

Perhaps worth noting explicitly is that the deficiencies of the RYO concatenation '(c)' or '(C)' do not apply to the single-character version '©', which retains its international usefulness. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
