I usually hit the "." key three times... I can't recall seing a font that has a special character for it.
It's in many (most?) Windows codepage 1252 (Latin-1) fonts as character 0x85/133. It's defined in Unicode and ISO 10646 as character 0x2026. It's defined as character … or … in HTML. It's apparently not present in ISO 8859-1. It's in pretty much every Mac font that I've seen (which would make sense since the union of the sets "Mac user" and "typesetting freak" is pretty sizeable compared to the size of the Mac community in general).
