Description:
------------
I've just rejected a PhDOE submission for the German
file_put_contents() man page:

> - Der Wert von <parameter>flags</parameter> kann eine Kombination der folgenden Flags sein, verbunden mit dem binären OR(<literal>|</literal>)
> + Der Wert von <parameter>flags</parameter> kann eine Kombination der folgenden Flags sein, verbunden mit dem binären OR(|)

Obviously, the issue is that `|` looks like `/` in italics, what
is confusing. Therefore I suggest to style <literals> differently;
a non-proportional font might be better anyway, and perhaps a
(slightly) different background color would also be appropriate.

What about a monospace font like Consolas or something?
