dividing links with |'s

[yawnmoth]

Say I wanted to place a | between a bunch of links. What would be the
best / most accessible way to do this? Here are two approaches I've
come up with but I'm not sure which one would be easier for someone
with a screen reader or whatever to make sense of:

There are 3 approaches in this link.

Neither approach is very good.

If anyone can be bothered who has easy access to a screen reader,
it would be interesting to get a rough summary or precis
transcript of at least one of the first 2 approaches and the last
inline list one.

I added the third one after Bergamot posted his thoughts ;)

display: marker;

What's the useful state of display: marker; ? AIUI, this is CSS 2
but CSS 2.1 dumped it and CSS 3 introduced ::marker as a pseudo-
selector (I may have the chronology wrong here). My concern is that
display: marker; would fall into the gap between never having any
support, then already being obsolete.

Well, maybe to make stuff like marker-offset work on it.

Aha, I'll look into it. Any reading material you can recommend, saving me
a google trip wading through superficial CSS sites?
