[GRASS-user] Pipe character in text field

Hello list,

I have to insert a pipe character in a text field. I use:

v.db.update map=mymap column=xkey value=|

but that will result in ^| instead of just the pipe |

How do I get rid of that little hook? Using a backslash to escape did not help.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

If you are executing this command from a shell (e.g. bash), you must
escape or enclose in single quotes the pipe character.
Try:
v.db.update map=mymap column=xkey value='|'
