How would I print these characters in Linux?
│ (ascii 179)
├ (ascii 195)
└ (ascii 192)
─ (ascii 196)
I cannot find any octal values that would work with echo -e "\0xxx", any ideas?
Answer
After much poring over man printf and info printf, I think I've gotten this to work.
The basic issue seems to be that bash has a built-in printf that doesn't work. And, despite what the man/info pages, say, \U doesn't work. \u still does, though.
env printf '\u2502'
gets me a vertical box character.
