font

might be a bit nitpicky but here's the gist.....

l| <--one is a lower case "L" one is a pipe and unless they are right next to each other its very hard to tell the difference. Us ubergeeks prolly know the difference just from the context they are used in but for newbies this could be very confusing I'd think. Anyway, is there another font that might work better in this regard?

Just a suggestion.

Well, this is what the code tags are for...
For example:

Code:

Code:

l|I

l|I
The letter I (9th alphabet) too resemples the pipe.
