__NOTOC__

This is the {{~~tl|~~key press}} template primarily designed to illustrate keys and keystrokes on a [[computer keyboard]]. With additional parameters, a single template can even illustrate a combination of multiple ''simultaneous'' keystrokes. A sequence of keystrokes, on the other hand, need to be demonstrated with separate templates.

This is the <code><nowiki>{{key press}}</nowiki></code> template primarily designed to illustrate keys and keystrokes on a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_technology computer keyboard]. With additional parameters, a single template can even illustrate a combination of multiple ''simultaneous'' keystrokes. A sequence of keystrokes, on the other hand, need to be demonstrated with separate templates.

Example

: {{~~tc|~~key press|A}} → {{key press|A}}

: <code><nowiki>{{key press|A}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|A}}

===Keystroke combinations===

To illustrate keystroke combinations, just use extra parameters:

: {{~~tc|~~key press|Alt|P}} → {{key press|Alt|P}}

: <code><nowiki>{{key press|Alt|P}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|Alt|P}}

: {{~~tc|~~key press|Ctrl|Alt|Del}} → {{key press|Ctrl|Alt|Del}}

: <code><nowiki>{{key press|Ctrl|Alt|Del}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|Ctrl|Alt|Del}}

When you feed several key names to this template, it adds a "+" (or whatever the contents of the optional ''chain'' parameter) with no spaces around. This means it won't line wrap. But when you show key combinations for instance in a table then that might cause too wide items. Then instead manually build the key combination with spaces around the "+" so it can line wrap:

: {{~~tc|~~key press|Ctrl}} + {{~~tlc|~~key press|Alt}} + {{~~tlc|~~key press|Del}} → {{key press|Ctrl}} + {{key press|Alt}} + {{key press|Del}}

: <code><nowiki>{{key press|Ctrl}}</nowiki></code> + <code><nowiki>{{key press|Alt}}</nowiki></code> + <code><nowiki>{{key press|Del}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|Ctrl}} + {{key press|Alt}} + {{key press|Del}}

: {{~~tc|~~key press|Ctrl|Alt|Del|5=chain=&#32;+&#32;}} → {{key press|Ctrl|Alt|Del|chain= + }}

: <code><nowiki>{{key press|Ctrl|Alt|Del|5=chain=&#32;+&#32;}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|Ctrl|Alt|Del|chain= + }}

On the other hand, to illustrate Windows [[Alt code]]s you might want to use separate templates with no intervening punctuation or space. In most Windows systems in North America and Western Europe, for example, the [[plus-minus sign]] (±) can be entered by holding down the Alt key while typing <code>0177</code> (with the [[numeric keypad]]):

On the other hand, to illustrate Windows [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alt_code Alt code]s you might want to use separate templates with no intervening punctuation or space. In most Windows systems in North America and Western Europe, for example, the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plus%E2%80%93minus_sign plus-minus sign] (±) can be entered by holding down the Alt key while typing <code>0177</code> (with the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_keypad numeric keypad]):

: {{~~tc|~~key press|Alt|0}}{{~~tlc|~~key press|1}}{{~~tlc|~~key press|7}}{{~~tlc|~~key press|7}} → {{key press|Alt|0}}{{key press|1}}{{key press|7}}{{key press|7}}

: <code><nowiki>{{key press|Alt|0}}{{key press|1}}{{key press|7}}{{key press|7}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|Alt|0}}{{key press|1}}{{key press|7}}{{key press|7}}

An example of a use case where more than 5 might be used is explaining usage of a macro (keyboard shortcut) created by a third-party application:

: {{~~tc|~~Key press|Ctrl|Alt|Shift|Win|Menu|fn|L}} → {{Key press|Ctrl|Alt|Shift|Win|Menu|fn|L}}

: <code><nowiki>{{Key press|Ctrl|Alt|Shift|Win|Menu|fn|L}}</nowiki></code> → {{Key press|Ctrl|Alt|Shift|Win|Menu|fn|L}}

===Wikilinks===

If there is an article about the key you can [~~[WP~~:~~wikilink|~~wikilink]] the key's name like any other wiki text. Like this:

If there is an article about the key you can [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikilink wikilink] the key's name like any other wiki text. Like this:

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alt_key|Alt]]}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|Alt}}

If you are wikilinking the keys, please ensure that you are piping to the correct page (e.g. <code><nowiki>[[Control key|Ctrl]]</nowiki></code> instead of <code><nowiki>[[Ctrl]]</nowiki></code>, which leads to a [~~[WP~~:~~Disambiguation page|~~disambiguation page]]).

===Wiki markup characters===

Some wiki markup characters, like the [[pipe symbol]], the [[semicolon]] and the [[equals sign]], need to be entered using the {{~~tlx|~~!}}, {{~~tlx|~~;}} and ~~{{tlx|~~{{=}}}} templates or as an [[HTML entity]] &#124;, &#59;, &#61; respectively:

Some wiki markup characters, like the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_symbol pipe symbol], the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semicolon semicolon] and the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equals_sign equals sign], need to be entered using the <code><nowiki>{{!}}</nowiki></code>, <code><nowiki>{{;}}</nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki>{{=}}</nowiki></code> templates or as an [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML_entity HTML entity] &#124;, &#59;, &#61; respectively:

* {{~~tc|~~key press|{{~~tc|~~pipe}}}} → {{key press|{{pipe}}}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|{{pipe}}}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|{{pipe}}}}

* {{~~tc|~~key press|&#124;}} → {{key press||}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|&#124;}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press||}}

* {{~~tc|~~key press|{{~~tc|~~;}}}} → {{key press|{{;}}}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|{{;}}}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|{{;}}}}

* {{~~tc|~~key press|&#59;}} → {{key press|;}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|&#59;}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|;}}

* {{~~tc|~~key press|{{~~tc|~~=}}}} → {{key press|{{=}}}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|{{=}}}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|{{=}}}}

* {{~~tc|~~key press|&#61;}} → {{key press|=}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|&#61;}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|=}}

However, if the characters are marked as wikilinks, they can be entered as such:

* {{~~tc|~~key press|~~<nowiki>~~[[|]]</nowiki>}} → {{key press|}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|[[|]]}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|}}

* {{~~tc|~~key press|~~<nowiki>~~[[;]]</nowiki>}} → {{key press|[[;]]}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|[[;]]}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|[[;]]}}

* {{~~tc|~~key press|~~<nowiki>~~[[=]]</nowiki>}} → {{key press|[[=]]}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|[[=]]}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|[[=]]}}

Most markup characters also have aliases:

* {{~~tc|~~key press|pipe}} → {{key press|pipe}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|pipe}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|pipe}}

* {{~~tc|~~key press|semicolon}} → {{key press|semicolon}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|semicolon}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|semicolon}}

* {{~~tc|~~key press|equals}} → {{key press|equals}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|equals}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|equals}}

* {{~~tc|~~key press|colon}} → {{key press|colon}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|colon}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|colon}}

* {{~~tc|~~key press|asterisk}} → {{key press|asterisk}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|asterisk}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|asterisk}}

* {{~~tc|~~key press|hash}} → {{key press|hash}}

* <code><nowiki>{{key press|hash}}</nowiki></code> → {{key press|hash}}

===Key symbols===

Some key names have a fitting [[Unicode]] character. This template automatically adds such "icons" to the following key names among others.
