markupParserNew

Incrementally parses marked-up text to create a plain-text string and an attribute list.

See the Pango Markup docs for details about the supported markup.

If accel_marker is nonzero, the given character will mark the character following it as an accelerator. For example, accel_marker might be an ampersand or underscore. All characters marked as an accelerator will receive a [pango.types.Underline.Low] attribute, and the first character so marked will be returned in accel_char, when calling funcmarkup_parser_finish. Two accel_marker characters following each other produce a single literal accel_marker character.

To feed markup to the parser, use [glib.markup_parse_context.MarkupParseContext.parse] on the returned [glib.markup_parse_context.MarkupParseContext]. When done with feeding markup to the parser, use funcmarkup_parser_finish to get the data out of it, and then use [glib.markup_parse_context.MarkupParseContext.free] to free it.

This function is designed for applications that read Pango markup from streams. To simply parse a string containing Pango markup, the funcPango.parse_markup API is recommended instead.
