Is that right? Should the right column example not also be shortened to :n
? I thought the single-dash names only allowed a single character in a name
on purpose, since multiple chars after a - were multiple options. -- Darren

yes, it's right. options have both long and short names.
perhaps you missed the change to the paragraph above:
+Assuming C-n is the shortname for C--name,
that reads short name (two words) as of r24732.
if you want to set Cn to Cvalue, use C--n=value.
