Sqlite 3 html documentation shows functions with \* instead of *.

Documentation

e.g. see:
https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/sqlite3.html#sqlite3.Connection.backup

other modules look fine.

I tried to look into the code to understand why sqlite outputs different html but the C code looks similar to other modules.

hi @erlend-aasland, if you can give me some hint where to look i'd gladly try to solve it myself...

Sure, look in Doc/library/sqlite3.rst. It's just a wrongly applied escape backslash in the docs. There might be more than just that one.

Here's a list of what needs fixup:

• blobopen
• create_function
• backup
• serialize
• deserialize

Actually, you can just revert #96081 (yes, these are entirely my fault)

git revert 91afe66707237558d808aeca4683d0822aa0511e

if it's a revert then there's no point in me doing it.
I assumed the docs were somehow generated from the C source code...

Np, thanks for the report though! I can't believe I didn't check the rendered output before merging gh-96081. Lessons learned.

Glad to have helped! :)
