$ echo "DEFAULT=userdef" | knoppix-customize --action set_syslinux_opt --image knoppix.iso

In Linux command lines like the one above how do I make the vertical line between :arrow: (userdef" ? Knoppix) ? :( I am using a 103 MS type keyboard! Or does one have to use it to complete the command?
Thanks John

--That is known as the "pipe" character. On my keyboard it is shift-backslash. (\) Anybody know the ASCII value offhand?

--For foreign (non-english) characters, I find it useful sometimes to cut+paste.
