I guess, this is one of many options you describe? In that case you
could use variablelist:
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>-m</option></term>
<term><option>--mode</option>=<replaceable>mode</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>Set the mode of created directories to mode. mode is
symbolic or octal mode as in <citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>chmod</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>1</manvolnum>
</citerefentry>. Relative modes assume an initial mode of
<literal>a=rwx</literal>.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<!-- Add more varlistentrys with the same structure -->
</variablelist>
Hope that helps.
