Make pipe | shorter

[tonsky]

Thanks for the good work. But in my personal opinion, the new | seems too tall in normal code. Now the || is way taller than &&, which seems inconsistent. Also, some related ligatures is inconsistent to this taller |, like |=

EDIT: I'm talking about the ASCII symbol | (U+007C) instead of the BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT VERTICAL │ (U+2502). In v2.0, the | (U+007C) becomes taller, which I think is a mistake.

It became taller to match full block height in progressbar:

     |████████████████████████████████| 102kB 4.6MB/s 

Maybe it’s not such a good idea.

Actually now I’m thinking that I can detect that specific case and alter the height in that case only

I think a proper progress bar should use U+2502 instead of U+007C anyway

Tell that to pip authors :)

What about when the bar isn’t all the way full?

Yeah, bad idea. Shame :(

I actually quite liked it last time I used a font with vertical bars this long, specifically for haskell's guards, and I like it here as well:

If you end up removing it, maybe consider leaving it in as a stylistic set, I would appreciate it.

Looks great in your screenshot. Thanks for that use-case!
