Hi
Is it possible to replace the square dots in bullet-point lists with a particular text characters?

While you cannot use a text character directly (as far as I know), you CAN replace the bullet-point images with any other image through CSS. So, make a small image of the character you want and then modify the CSS to use that.
See: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/generate.html#list-style Look for list-style-image or list-style
Thanks - I assume that this would affect all bullet-point lists on the wiki? I want to be able to use text characters for bullet-points for only some such lists on some pages, but, from what you say, this doesn't seem possible.

you could create a class in your css and then apply it only for the lists you want different images on kate
