There's this HTML element meant for marking up keyboard keys named `<kbd>`. Obviously it can be styled with CSS so why not use it to make those elements look a bit more like hardware or the iOS and Android software keys.
The above picture might be blurry depending on the device you're using so here's a live rendered demo:
They are completely styled with CSS3 so they're sharp on all screens no matter how high the dpi. Have a look at the [full demo](http://lab.kremalicious.com/kbdfun/) or grab the project folder with the CSS & LESS files from GitHub. The code is under the MIT license so you're free to use it in any personal or commercial project.
For the Android style, there's `roboto.less` as include at the end. But the font files won't load unless you uncomment the `.font-roboto` line in kbdftw.less. This is to make sure, users won't download all the font files if you don't use the Android style.
I've let the default `display: inline` intact so all padding on the `kbd` elements won't affect the line-height of the surrounding text. This leads to problems when you want to use them over multiple lines so just make them `display: inline-block` in this scenario.
