Template:Code

Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)

This template allows the presentation of pre-formatted text within the confines of a code-like presentation without the box taking up the entire width of the page.

Usage

Simply add the code or function name you wish to present as the second argument:

{{ code | text }}

Example

This code:

{{ code | <nowiki> {{ foo | bar }} </nowiki> }}

Would result in this:

{{ foo | bar }}

And this code:

{{code|Foo

bar

  Hah!}}

Would result in this:

Foo bar Hah!

Similarly this code:

{{code|10 PRINT "Hello World!"
20 END}}

Would result in this:

10 PRINT "Hello World!" 20 END

Using it inline, like this:

foo {{code|Foo what? Huh? Huh!}} bar

Would result in this:

Foo

Foo what? Huh? Huh!

bar

This as opposed to how <pre></pre> tags usually work:

Go ahead, use all the width :(
