Use this template to generate a pair of left (open) and right (close) angle brackets (also called chevrons) that will display correctly, even on operating systems and browsers that normally cannot display these characters when they are used in text. The angle brackets will surround whatever you insert as a parameter after the pipe (|) symbol. Examples:
{{angle bracket|ŋ}}displays as Template:Angbr{{angle bracket|foo}}displays as Template:Angbr{{angle bracket|ψ{{!}}Ĥ{{!}}ψ}}displays as Template:Angbr
You can also insert (nest) a text- or character-producing template as the parameter. Examples:
{{angle bracket|{{IPA|ŋ}}}}displays as Template:Angbr{{angle bracket|{{date}}}}displays as Template:Angbr
{{angbr IPA}} is a shorthand for the first example.
Formatting (markup)
[muda l codesc]Place any HTML or Wiki markup either outside the template or after the pipe (|) symbol as part of the parameter. Examples:
'''{{angle bracket|foo}}'''displays as Template:Angbr{{angle bracket|<u>foo</u>}}displays as Template:Angbr{{angle bracket|''foo''}}displays as Template:Angbr
The template does not work properly with an equals sign (=) in the parameter. Start the parameter with 1= to circumvent this problem.
