While cleaning up my email archives, I came across this request of yours 
from November.  Perhaps by now you have found a solution, but you did 
ask for other ideas.  The TeXmacs command you are probably looking for 
is <degreesign>, which can also be typed in the following ways, per 
Wikipedia:

- On a Macintosh, you might type Option+Shift+8.
- On Linux and other Unix-like systems, many keyboard layouts allow 
typing the degree sign with AltGr+Shift+0.

Helpfully,
Rob
