Hi,
Normally the continuation lines in help texts are indented two
spaces. But in two of its lines 'makeinfo --help' lacks these
spaces. Attached corrects this. It also adds an "=" before an
argument for consistency, adds two words for clarity, and replaces
a typoed period and comma by a comma and a period.
