Template:Code/doc
Wraps a short span of text in <code>...</code> tags. This template should be used for short samples; longer content should use <pre>...</pre> or <source>...</source>. See Help:Wiki markup for an explanation of what the various tags do.
If the content includes an equals sign (=), you must specify the parameter explicitly: {{code|1=date=30 Feb 2010}}.
The template uses the {{nowiki}} tag to attempt to supress wiki markup interpretation. This works on some things, but not others. For example, {{code|some '''wiki''' text}} will not render the word "wiki" in bold, and will render the tripled-single-quotes:
some '''wiki''' text
However, {{code|a {{template}} call}} will still invoke the template:
a {{[[Template:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]]}} call
This template does not need to be substituted.
Use parameter {{{2}}}/{{{lang}}} to specify language for syntax highlighting.
