Sometimes it is need to mention matlab in the help text. For example, to mention that a weird behavior needs to be kept for matlab compatibility. In such case, small caps should be used. For example, the following is used in the {{Codeline|length}} help text:
{{Code||<pre>
For matrix objects, the length is the number of rows or columns, whichever is
