I doubt, if it is preferred way to add '@' in the beginning of line.
But doing so will give cleaner format in the final html.
By not adding '@' at the beginning of the line, all the spaces are
clipped/ignored which mess up the json formatting.

If there is any better way someone please suggest.

Also this is not the case in qemu-doc.texi, it formats well without
any additional managing characters ?

Thanks,
