It's 1) - there is no key on the keyboard labeled with "|".

It's a german keyboard layout. But usually there's one key for "<",">"
and "|", and that's the key that is missing. So far the only way to
produce the character was to activate the keypad-function and use
Alt-<124>. Which only works on the console, not in the terminal..
Any other ideas, anyone?
