Atom or cell
------------

`$|` is a tile rune that produces a [`%reed`](), a tile whose [icon]()
is a [fork]() between two nouns: an [atom]() of `tile` `p` and a cell of
`tile` `q`. `$|` is similar to [`$?`](), but is more strict in that in
only contains one atom tile and one cell tile.

### Examples

    ~zod/try=> *$|(~ [~ u=@])
    ~
    ~zod/try=> :type; *$|(~ [~ u=@])
    ~
    u(@)

    ++  list  |*  a=_,*                                     ::  null-terminated list
              $|(~ [i=a t=(list a)])                        ::

In `++list`, `$|` specifies that every element in a noun that can be
cast to a `++list` is either the atom `~` or the cell
`[i=a t=(list a)]`.
