Not quite. The following will work though:
def QuaternionAlgebra(K, a, b, names=['i','j','k'], denom=1):
"""
Return the quaternion algebra over `K` generated by
`i`, `j`, and `k` such that
`i^2 = a`, `j^2 = b`, and `ij=-ji=k`.
INPUT:
- ``K`` - field
- ``a`` - element of K
- ``b`` - element of K
- ``names`` - list of three strings
- ``denom`` - (optional, default 1)
EXAMPLES::
sage: A.<i,j,k> = QuaternionAlgebra(QQ, -1,-1)
sage: i^2
-1
sage: j^2
-1
sage: i*j
k
sage: j*i
-k
sage: (i + j + k)^2
-3
sage: A.ramified_primes()
[2]

You can just build the docs with "sage -docbuild reference html" and
it will only rebuild changed modules.
That being said, Sphinx has an actual markup for input and output
which would make more sense to use. See
http://sphinx.pocoo.org/markup/desc.html#info-field-lists
