Subject: [PATCH 1/5] tracecmd library documentation: Use star and not underscore for function names
Date: Wed, 21 Sep 2022 20:29:36 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220922002940.3302285-2-rostedt@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220922002940.3302285-1-rostedt@goodmis.org>

From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Functions referenced in man pages should be bold and not underscored.
Convert all function references in the man pages to be bold.
