Template:Braces
{{Template:Thinsp}}
- This template returns the first unnamed parameter in double braces. To be used to demonstrate template code without the need for clunky nowiki'ing. Further unnamed parameters (up to 8 more) can be used without worrying for pipes.
- An alternative is to use
{{foo}}. - Set
|code="on", "true", etc to switch the font used to the HTML <code>-style monospaced font. - To improve legibility, {{thinsp}}aces are inserted either side of any pipe characters ("Template:Thinsp|Template:Thinsp") displayed by the template.
- To ensure equals-signs are handled as text by the template, use Template:Tlspc to produce them – e.g.
{{braces|Templatename|p1=v1|p2=v2|...}}(and see examples below).
Examples[edit]
{{braces|Templatename|item1|item2}}→ {{TemplatenameTemplate:Thinspitem1Template:Thinspitem2}}{{braces|code=on |Templatename|item1|item2}}→{{TemplatenameTemplate:Thinspitem1Template:Thinspitem2}}
Using Template:Tlspc to produce equals-signs:
{{braces|code=on |Templatename|item1{{=}}XYZ|item2{{=}}PQR}}→{{TemplatenameTemplate:Thinspitem1=XYZTemplate:Thinspitem2=PQR}}
Not using Template:Tlspc to produce equals-signs (incorrect):
{{braces|code=on |Templatename|item1=XYZ|item2=PQR}}→{{Templatename}}
