Use '&' in widget title... NOT mnemonic [message #440047]

In SWT placing an & before a letter makes that letter a mnemonic for that
widget.
The thing is I would like to actually use an ampersand as part of the text
on my widget.
Is there a way to do this.

for Example:
I want my Button title to be: Pencil & Pen

and I don't want the space or the P in pen to be a mnemonic.

Thank you,
