Template:CB

{{{1}}}

Purpose

Create a code block which can be indented with the usual : indentation marker. Normally, a preformatted text block can be inserted with an additional space in the beginning, e.g.

 MY_SPECIAL_TAG = A B C

will print as:

MY_SPECIAL_TAG = A B C

However, this syntax does not allow indenting, e.g., in lists. The CB (as in Code Block) template allows the box to be indented any level.

Warning: Unfortunately, this currently works for single lines, multiple lines are unreadable.

Parameters

 {{CB|<content>|<<padding>>}}

• content: The content of the code block.
• padding: (optional) Specifies the padding of the code box, the default is 1em.

Examples

Without optional arguments the following example

::{{CB|MY_SPECIAL_TAG {{=}} A B C}}

gives:

MY_SPECIAL_TAG = A B C

Note that the box is correctly indented two levels. The padding can be reduced with the optional argument, e.g.:

::{{CB|MY_SPECIAL_TAG {{=}} A B C|0.5em}}

results in:

MY_SPECIAL_TAG = A B C

Problems and workarounds

The content cannot contain the "=" character because this has a special meaning for named template parameters. Therefore, we have to use the {{=}} template instead.

Ideas for improvement
