How to type "|" in xterm
 

Hi,

I can't seem to find how to type the symbol "|" in xterm.

The reason I need it so to check how much space I have in rootfs as recommended here:

Talk about moving from problem to problem lol.

Function key (tilted blue arrow) + Sym

See what you get!

Press the blue arrow above the shift key, then the key above it with Sym and Ctrl on it. This will bring up an OSK with symbols on it.

Enjoy.....

EDIT: Beaten to the punch lol..... Nice one.....

Pressing Func+Ctrl opens special characters map. You might need to have virtual keyboard enables, don't remember.

edit: Really really slow...
