I’m trying to make a figure in which I’d like a marker to appear in the tile.

For example, a dummy figure title is:  
`title = L"$$Panel 1 (star6)"`  
where star6 refers to a marker appearing on another panel.

Is there anyway to make it such that an actual `:star6` symbol appears in the resulting title, instead of the string `star6` ?

cheers and thanks!
