Re: graphical character /vertical line

Prefer Stefan's solution to fgl_drawbox when possible.
fgl_drawbox does the job too but mixing design and business logic is not 
always the best solution.

                          \gp---q\g
                          \g|\gBOX\g|\g
                          \gb---d\g
