Template:Tlf/doc

This is the {{Tlf}} or template with parameters template.

It can be used in documentation and talk page discussions to show how a template name would be used in code.

Here is how this template looks. Code to the left and actual rendering to the right:

{{Tlf|str len|parameters}} gives {{str len|parameters}}

Features of {{Tlf}}:

• It shows a template name.
• It shows up to eight parameters.
• It also shows empty parameters.
• It prevents line wraps in its output.
• It uses normal text style. (While for instance {{Tlx}} uses teletype text style.)

If you have equal signs in your template parameters then some find it simpler to code it using <nowiki> tags, or the = or = character references. Here's how to do that. Code to the left and actual rendering to the right:

{{Tlf|str len|<nowiki>one=a|two=b</nowiki>}} = {{str len|one=a|two=b}}

{{Tlf|str len|one=a|two=b}} = {{str len|one=a|two=b}}
