But the trademark symbol IS typeable! Unfortunately I can't tell you
how since I have a Swedish keyboard with slightly different layout.
However, you can open the "Key Caps" desk accessory and check
yourself. When you press the shift or option key (or both together),
the keycaps on the screen will change, so you can se where the
trademark symbol is.

Yes, they will. The connection between an application and its
documents is completely independent from the file name of the
application. You could do it this way in case you don't find the
(TM) symbol.
