A simple template that makes it easier to see that a keyboard key is involved.
Usage
{{Key press|key|border style}}
- key is the literal name of the key to be pressed. For F4, for example, the syntax is
{{Key press|F4}}
. This results in the following: F4 - HTML character entities are allowed. For example, to display the multiplication symbol, this works:
{{Key press|×}}
and results in ×. - To display a pressed key, add inset border style like this:
{{Key press|F4|inset}}
and the key will appear to be pressed: F4. - The key and border parameters can be reversed, but then their names need to be specified:
{{Key press|border=inset|key=F4}}
will become F4 - Forgetting to specify a key will default to the equals sign:
{{Key press}}
becomes =.
