You could use characters from the Box Drawing block in Unicode (U 
+2500-U+257F), for example:

	────	BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT HORIZONTAL @ U+2500
	━━━━	BOX DRAWINGS HEAVY HORIZONTAL @ U+2501

A few fonts have these characters: FreeMono (FreeSans, FreeSerif),  
DejaVu Sans Mono, Monospace, Unicode Symbols ...
