Usage

{{Trim brackets|input}}

Description

Utility template used to trim square brackets ([ and ]). For past versions of {{Shortcut}}, square brackets had to be added manually, but for past versions of {{Shortcuts}}, square brackets would be unsightly. As the former now redirects to the latter, this template's job is to normalize the markup for compatibility and simplicity.
