use of the   {{out}}   template

Since you're into templates, do you know if the   {{out}}   template can support the adding (or appending/concatenating) of text to the bold   Output   "title"   (and keep the additional text   on the same line ?

(I have no idea where the template is kept, who can modify it, or if it can be changed.)


I normally use something like   (usually immediately after the   </lang>   HTML tag):

 '''output'''   when using the input of:   <tt> 12   -6 </tt> 

which renders to:

output   when using the input of:    12   -6 

and some people (or person) have been changing the   '''output'''   when using ...   to

 {{out}} when using ... 

which renders to:

Output
 
when using ...

which changes the apparent antecedent of the   when   and modifies my (original) meaning of the phrase.

Also not the additional blank line.


I understand it would be nice to have all the computer programming entries use (more or less) the same (if not a constant) template9s), but I don't know where the options for (this particular) template(s) are documented (if at all).

At this point, I'm not sure if it is worth the bother, as I certainly don't have the timer or inclination to change over a thousand of my entries.   (I'm not sure of the number, but I think over half of my REXX entries have multiple   output   sections, almost all of them have appended comments.)
