Examples for its use:

  • to shorten PageNames. (written: PageName¦s)
  • to deactivate a LinkPattern (written: L¦inkPattern)
  • to deactivate an url: http://www.google.com (written: h¦ttp://www.google.com)
  • to put images side by side without a separating blank:

How to enter character 0166 from the keyboard:

Using MS-Windows you:

  • press the ALT-key and keep it pressed
