සැකිල්ල:lua/documentation

	Documentation for සැකිල්ල:lua. ^[edit]
	This page contains usage information, categories, interwiki links and other content describing the template.

This template is used to wrap and add syntax highlighting to Lua code snippets, for use in documentation pages. Examples:

1. A simple example:

{{lua|"foo bar"}}

produces

"foo bar"

2. A more complex example:

{{lua|1={spec = "gender/number_spec", qualifiers = nil or {"qualifier1", "qualifier2", ...} }}

produces

{spec = "gender/number_spec", qualifiers = nil or {"qualifier1", "qualifier2", ...}

Note in the latter case, the param |1= needs to be explicitly given to avoid the equal signs in the code snippet from being interpreted as specifying named parameters, and a space is used at the end of the snippet to avoid parser problems with three braces in a row.
