On line 757, there are two regexes...
#
# Regexes used only here.
#
my $sphinx_literal = '^[^.].*::$';
my $sphinx_cblock = '^\.\.\ +code-block::';
...which are (only) used immediately below in output_highlight_rst().
Amend those regexes to also match "Ex.", e.g.
my $sphinx_cblock = '^\.\.\ +(code-block::|Ex\.)';
Alternatively, add another variable definition and match against it
in output_highlight_rst().
A third alternative is to use the "::" syntax in lieu of
".. code-block:: c" in your C source file, if that causes
less eyesore for Peter. ;)
Thanks,
