On a PC, you hold down ALT and enter a code (for instance ALT+0153 = a ™ sign). Nice and easy.
I'm on a Mac now. How do i enter ASCII characters now, without having to google them?

alt+t = ™
alt + c = ©
and so on „Ω€®™æ¨œå߃∞∆ªª∑†©√ƒ∞∫∆˜µµ

LOL @ some arbitrary code being easier than a logical key combo.
If you want a super easy way ctrl+cmd+space then click the little chevron bottom right of that panel
