I added this code to MediaWiki:Common.js

"speedTip": "Use this to mark free software that's ALSO open
source",
//text shown in a tooltip when hovering the mouse over the button
"tagOpen": "{{", //the text to use to mark the beginning of
the
block
"tagClose": "GNU}}", //the text to use to mark the end of the
block
(if any)
"sampleText": "" //the sample text to place inside the block
};
mwCustomEditButtons.push(button);
The goal is to put a *{{GNU}}* tag into the wiki whenever a button is
pressed. If I put the {{GNU}} within "tagOpen" the template is
interpreted
before insertion into the page which is NOT what I want. The button
should
insert the template name "{{GNU}}" and not the text the template
references. So I split the template in half but the cursor is in the
middle
of the template. e.g.:
{{|GNU}}
What I would like to do is put the cursor at the end of the template. For
example:
{{GNU}} |
That way someone can insert the template and keep typing without messing
up
the template. Any ideas on how to do this?
Thanks,

The solution is to put {{GNU}} as the value for tagOpen.
To do this without having the template itself be transcluded
on Common.js, escape the braces, i.e. "\{\{GNU\}\}"
