Hello Yaroslav,

thanks for reporting the bug.

manpage has odd formatting in

        --recurse-to=MODULE/PACKAGE
               Recurse to that module, or if a package, to the whole package. 
Can be

        given multiple
               times.Default empty.

Thanks corrected. This was coming from the optparse declaration of the option, and as such was also present in "--help".

also you might like to group options into few sections instead of invisible
embeddings like

     Dump options for internal tree:

help2man you have used has an option for embedding arbitrary *roff given 
pattern to match:

  Blocks of verbatim *roff text are inserted into the output either at the 
start of the given [section] (case insensitive), or after a paragraph matching 
/pattern/.

The output of "--help" is good in this respect. I believe it's an issue of "help2man", but I couldn't find anybody who needs or uses it, so we are on our own here.

I am using this "help2man" option already to attach the examples section. I do not believe that adding after a match is good enough for this. So what I do now is to make changes to the nroff file after it was created. I am searching the control sections (first line in a ."IP" block) and replace it with ".SS" to add the subsection text with a forced newline as well.

And while at it, I am fixing the problem with "--g++-only" up as well, where the bold text stops too early.

I am now preparing an "0.3.18a" release that contains these fixes.

Yours,
Kay
