When using the finger-board (as opposed to the stylus-board) that pops up when you tap a dialogue box with your finger, select the symbol page by tapping the symbol button to the right of the number button. The pipe symbol is in the top row of keys.

Any way to get that board in xterm? I tap with my finger, only the stylus-board opens

This (among other key placement reasons) is why I use the en_GB virtual-keyboard layout rather than the en_US layout. I need my pipes!
