This is a documentation subpage for Template:First character. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage
{{First character|string}}-> s{{First character|!string}}-> !{{First character|$string}}-> ${{First character|[string}}-> [{{First character|]string}}-> ]{{First character|-string}}-> -{{First character|_string}}-> _{{First character|{string}}-> {{{First character|}string}}-> }
Issues
Does not cope well with =, #, :, * or ;
{{First character|=string}}->{{First character|#string}}->
{{First character|:string}}->
{{First character|;string}}->
{{First character|*string}}->
"=" can be worked around:
{{First character|1=string}}-> =
"#", ":", "*" and ";" do actually get computed and can be used in comparison tests.
The display problem seems to hinge on Template:Phab by which bug Mediawiki treats these as if they are commencing a new-line (possibly inserting a newline for that purpose) so that:
{{First character|#string}} Item 1
gives:
- Item 1
