!! Introduction

[[Procedure|Procedures]] parameters are made available as variables when the procedure contents are wikified.

!! Accessing Parameters as Variables

When procedures are wikified, the parameters can be accessed as variables.

For example:

<$macrocall $name="wikitext-example-without-html" src="""\procedure say-hi(name,address)
Hi, I'm <<name>> and I live in <<address>>.
\end

<<say-hi name:"Bugs" address:"Rabbit Hole Hill">>
"""/>

Accessing parameters as variables only works in procedures that are wikified and not, for example, when a procedure is used as an attribute value.
