==Usage==
Use template {{tlx|xt}} (the name of which stands for "e<strong>x</strong>ample <strong>t</strong>ext") to change the given text to {{xt|the serif typeface, and green text}}, in order to format examples of style, especially when using quotation marks or italics could be confusing. This template is used frequently in the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]] when ''inline'' typeface changes are needed. (For style examples that break to their own line, use {{tl|xt2}}).) For examples of {{!xt|bad/wrong style, in red}}, use {{tl|!xt}} and {{tl|!xt2}}, respectively.

As with all templates, when the text, given as the template parameter, has any equals characters,
prefix the text with {{para|1}} in order to ensure any equals signs in the given text
are correctly interpreted as being part of the normal text.

===Examples===
;What you write:

:<code><nowiki>...for example, {{xt|1=''T'' = 293.15 K}}, {{xt|1=''m'' = 5.4 kg}}.</nowiki></code>

;What you get:

:...for example, {{xt|1=''T'' = 293.15 K}}, {{xt|1=''m'' = 5.4 kg}}.

The accompanying change in typeface to a serif typestyle, ({{xt|example text}}) is to make it fully accessible for those with color blindness.
