tt

The teletype (<tt>) element is used to apply monospaced highlighting to the content of the element. Use this element only when there is not some other more proper element. For example, for specific items such as GUI controls, use the <uicontrol> element. This element is part of the DITA highlighting domain.

Example

<p>Make sure that the screen displays <tt>File successfully created</tt> before
proceeding to the next stage of the task.</p>

(Tag purists may delight to point out that this example could be more correctly marked with the msgph element.)
