Yay!

Yay! I just created a template which will allow us to highlight code with a specified tab size in Lua, but also JavaScript and lots of other languages which we never use on the wiki anyways. But it's still cool, as, basically, it's like the code tag, but better, as we can also change tab size. And this template will also make switching to the other highlighting extension easier! :D

True, true, but it's still cool. And, it allows us to customize the tab size. Even though we could still easily do it with the style attribute, it's still useful to make it all handled by a template, as that allows us to change it on the whole wiki easily.

Why do we need this?

We already have {{lua}}. Why do we need this page? I can't think of anywhere on the wiki it'll be used. It'll just be confused with the lua template.

It's not more complicated. It's just redundant - where will it be used?

Well, I believe it could be used instead of the lua template, since it offers more options. Or perhaps the lua template could use it, since the opposite isn't possible.

We don't want more options - we want consistency! Letting each wiki editor choose their favourite tab width is not a good way to be consistent.
