Template documentation

Purpose

This template links to an audio file for quick listening. It is meant to be used inline with text, for pronunciations and the like.

Usage

{{Audio|name of sound file|text to use as link to soundfile}}

Example:

'''Bordeaux''' ({{Audio|Fr-Bordeaux.ogg|pronunciation}}) is a [[Seaport|port]] city in...

gives this:

Bordeaux ( pronunciation ) is a port city in...

Note that a printout of the page will remove the "help·info" bit and give:

Bordeaux (pronunciation ) is a port city in...

Setting |help=no disables the "help/info" links. If this is done the template {{inline audio}} must be shown on the page.
