Yes. I think the 1.7.6 patch from Simon did not change the usage output.
As I broke the line in two we do have room for a little more. If we
abbreviate MINLEVEL we can still have that shorter indentation:
--incremental[=MODE] "incremental" mode [using section MODE]
--markov[=[MINLVL-]LEVEL "Markov" mode (see documentation)
[:START:END[:MAXLEN]]]
--external=MODE external mode or word filter
or maybe like this. Not beautiful but perhaps better:
--incremental[=MODE] "incremental" mode [using section MODE]
--markov[=[MINLEVEL-]LEVEL[:START:END[:MAXLEN]]]
"Markov" mode (see documentation)
--external=MODE external mode or word filter
actually I think it's best just like this:
--incremental[=MODE] "incremental" mode [using section MODE]
--markov[=options] "Markov" mode (see documentation)
--external=MODE external mode or word filter
