At least until someone comes up with a better option. I tend just to use an italic b - b (that's (i)b(/i) , but with arrow brackets like < instead of round brackets.) |

A quick search on Google will turn them up. I used to have one on my old computer, but I forget what it was called. It's likely available as a download somewhere for free (my favourite price). I'll see if I can find the name.... |

You can download it at http://www.grel.ch/ftp/TrueTypeFonts/M/ It is MusicalSymbols.ttf Install it to your Fonts folder (through Control Panel) and access it through any application from your fonts list. |
