Template:Tt/doc
Usage
Template:(tt|text to format here}}
renders as:
text to format here
This template is for formatting short bits of content (the only parameter) as monospaced (nonproportional) text. It is simply a quick shorthand for the necessary CSS code. It is a replacement for Template:Tag, which is an obsolete element under HTML5. (Non-conforming features)
This template should be used where the content is being rendered in monospaced text for purely stylistic/display reasons, where this display has no particular semantic significance.
It cannot be used to mark up multiple paragraphs, sections or other block elements, as it uses Template:Tag, which is an inline element.
Template:Tag is normally used to indicate source code and Template:Tag for variables or variable input.
Template:Tag and Template:Tag display similarly to Template:Tag, and are normally used for keyboard and samples.
For example:
- {{tt|123<br/>ABC}}
produces
- 123
ABC
rather than
- 123
ABC
Parameter
- {{{1}}} or unnamed
