Fix pointer-to-paramref syntax in docs · 9f016e5d
The documentation for GLib and Gio contains a number of documentation
comment blocks where a parameter reference (e.g. @err
) is also
discussed in its dereferenced pointer form, which is generally
annotated as *@err
. This inevitably confuses the MarkDown parser,
which sees the *
as the beginning of an italicized text span.
To avoid this, replace all *@foo
with *foo
, which
loses the @
-sigil linking it to the @foo
parameter, but formats
correctly in the rendered documentation. (@foo
is automatically
formatted like foo
, so the resulting appearance in
the docs is as intended.)
