    There is no straight line symbol from the key you have indicated. "~" is the symbol for the key above the left hand tab key. Are you looking for
    this symbol "|" ? That vertical straight line is below the backspace key and is produced by using the "shift" and aforementioned key together.
    "|" hope this help if not then copy and paste from the terminal the symbol you are looking for.

    Note the key itself does not show the vertical straight line on it instead it has two smaller vertical lines ( like a dotted highway marker line )
