If you're using it as the frog then you'll probably use the M_CHARPUT
routine in rom. So to do it you'd just load the a register with the ascii
value for omega, it should be the same on the 85, and call the function.
If your editor can't print a character and you want that character in a
string you can always plug in the ascii value like this:
MyString:
"Stuff",196
"More stuff",0
196 being the ascii value.
