{{Uses TemplateStyles |Template:Mono/styles.css|noprotcat=yes}}

== Usage ==

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">{{monodiv|
text line 1

text line 2

text line 3}}</syntaxhighlight>

renders as:

{{monodiv|
text line 1

text line 2

text line 3}}

This template is for formatting multi-line sections of content as plain, monospaced (nonproportional) text. It is a quick shorthand for the necessary [[w:Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]] code. It is the multi-line version of {{tl|mono}} and a replacement for {{tag|tt}}, which is an obsolete element under HTML5. ([http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/obsolete.html#non-conforming-features Non-conforming features])

This template ''should'' be used where the content is being rendered in monospaced text for purely stylistic/display reasons, where this display has no particular semantic significance. Because it uses {{tag|div}} tags for formatting instead of {{tag|span}} tags, it can be used to wrap bulleted lists, along with div-based list templates like {{tl|hlist}}.

It ''should not'' be used to indicate source code, nor for variables or variable input (use {{tl|code}} or {{tag|code}} for code and {{tl|var}} or {{tag|var}} for variables). For keyboard or samples, use {{tag|kbd}} or {{tag|samp}} respectively.

When the content ends with a single closing curly brace (<code><nowiki>}</nowiki></code>), the content should be followed by <code><nowiki><nowiki/></nowiki></code>, for example, to mark up <code><nowiki>{foo}</nowiki></code>, use {{tlc|monodiv|<nowiki>{foo}<nowiki/></nowiki>}} or {{tlc|monodiv|<nowiki><nowiki>{foo}</nowiki></nowiki>}}.

If the content contains pipe characters (<code>|</code>) not surrounded by {{tag|nowiki}}, they must be escaped with <code>&#124;</code> or <code><nowiki>{{!}}</nowiki></code>.

=== Parameters ===
There is only one parameter:
;{{para|1}} or unnamed
: The content to format as monospaced. If the content contains a <code>=</code> character, the parameter must be numbered with {{para|1}}.
