Installable with the Extension Manager

Description

Even though XWiki Syntax 2.0+ supports a Quote syntax by default, it can be handy to use this Macro when copy-pasting text (from a mail, from a chat, etc). The main reason is that using the quote wiki syntax forces to use the > character on each line.

Note that this macro currently works well only with inline content being pasted. If some pasted content has meaning over several lines (separated by newlines) then it'll not display correctly (e.g. a table)

Usage

{{quote}}
... line 1 ...
...
... line N ...
{{/quote}}

Examples

Example with XWiki Syntax 2.1:

> line 1
> line 2

Same example with this macro:

{{quote}}
line 1
line 2
{{/quote}}

Gives:
