{{Template shortcut |angbr|infix|grapheme|vr}}

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 (computer programming)|parameter]] after the pipe (|) symbol. Examples:

==Usage==
*<code><nowiki>{{angle bracket|ŋ}}</nowiki></code> displays as {{angbr|ŋ}}
*<code><nowiki>{{angle bracket|foo}}</nowiki></code> displays as {{angbr|foo}}
*<code><nowiki>{{angle bracket|ψ{{!}}Ĥ{{!}}ψ}}</nowiki></code> displays as {{angbr|ψ{{!}}Ĥ{{!}}ψ}}

You can also insert (nest) a text- or character-producing template as the parameter. Examples:

*<code><nowiki>{{angle bracket|{{IPA|ŋ}}}}</nowiki></code> displays as {{angbr|{{IPA|ŋ}}}}
*<code><nowiki>{{angle bracket|{{date}}}}</nowiki></code> displays as {{angbr|{{date}}}}

===Shortcuts===
* ''{{tlx|Angbr}}'' is synonym

===IPA===
{{tl|angbr IPA}} is a shorthand for IPA characters:
*<code><nowiki>{{angle bracket|ŋ}}</nowiki></code> displays as {{angbr|ŋ}}

== Formatting (markup) ==

Place any HTML or Wiki markup either outside the template or after the pipe (|) symbol as part of the parameter. Examples:

*<code><nowiki>'''{{angle bracket|foo}}'''</nowiki></code> displays as '''{{angbr|foo}}'''
*<code><nowiki>{{angle bracket|<u>foo</u>}}</nowiki></code> displays as {{angbr|<u>foo</u>}}
*<code><nowiki>{{angle bracket|''foo''}}</nowiki></code> displays as {{angbr|''foo''}}

The template does not work properly with an equals sign (=) in the parameter. Start the parameter with <code>1=</code> to circumvent this problem.

== Meaning ==

Angle brackets (chevrons) have many uses as punctuation marks and symbols. See [[Angle brackets]].
