The template documentation below is transcluded from Template:Keypress/doc [edit]

Documentation

{{keypress}} is a standard way to display one (1) to three (3) concurrent keyboard keystrokes, connected by the + sign if there are two or more parameters.

Parameters

  • Positional parameter 1 is required and can be a single letter or string
  • Positional parameters 2 and 3 are optional and can be single letters or strings
  • Named parameter background is optional and is in one of the following formats:
Six digit hex color code, including the leading # symbol
or
The text name of one of the sixteen colors of the HTML 4.01 specification HTML color names
{{keypress 
| letter(s) for first key box 
| (optional parameter) letter(s) for second key box
| (optional parameter) letter(s) for third key box
| (optional parameter) background=
}}

Arrows

Arrows can be placed inside the template by using the wikipedia:List_of_XML_and_HTML_character_entity_references as shown below. Due to wiki-substitution the leading & sign was not included in the "code" columns.
