![]() | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Char. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
For showing examples of typographic symbols, using a box designed to look a bit like a metal typeface. This is to replace many uses of parenthesis, quotes, etc being used to show this, for consistent style and to avoid confusion as to what glyphs are actually part of the symbol.
Generally messing with the font or size has produced unattractive results, so this leaves all formatting unchanged from the main text. Note that mono is the primary reason template:code could not be used.
Usage
{{char|x}} → x
