Actually, @option sounds ideal, since that's what --help is.
Hi Eli,
Thank you! Still and all, it is surprising to have texi go in
and render text in ways I consider surprising. I think it would
be a good thing to have a special (although short) chapter in
the doc saying, "texi treats these characters specially"
and list the '@', '{', '}' and '-' characters there and what to
do to escape them. I know how to escape the first three, and
I know how to escape the hyphen for my current example, but how
do I do it with plain text? "@-" doesn't work. I may not wish
to have "@code{-}" inserted into my text since it is a different
font. What is the right way? Anyway, grist for a chapter or
section in the texi manual methinks.
Thanks again!
Regards, Bruce
