I know I had a hell of a time posting last week because, my post had a pipe in it, (The character above the back slash), and I kept getting an error. Let me see if I can get it to post now...
Nope! it didn't work! I had to go back and edit it out of this post!
Philipp, do you have any idea why this would be? It's kind of important we be able to post a pipe since it's used in a lot of code. Thanks.

That's a pipe.
Thanks Philipp!

sorry to put on my black cap, shirt with vertical white and black
alternating stripes, black shorts, raise my arm and blow on my whistle, but:
(I think I'll call it "DefRef" in the future - 'Definition Referee'
or 'Definition Reference' are possible word plays)
actually, the char is a 'vertical bar'. It's just a char like any other byte value.
In a command interpreter or 'shell', however, it has special meaning.
It is the way to indicate the shell should connect the standard output
file descriptor of the process on the left of the char to the standard input
file descriptor of the process on the right of the char.
It's my experience to call it 'pipe', while suggestive of it's special meaning
in a shell, only confuses the new user since it glosses over the subtlety of chars
having special meanings only in certain limited contexts.
For more information, here are some online references in order of how canonical they are:
1. The Free Dictionary
2. WordIQ (scroll down a ways..)
3. and the international standards organization to be the last word on ISO8859-1
don't let your eyes glaze over reading the last entry, it's your handy complete reference guide!

It's just mysterious how he knew which character I was talking about.
