Public bug reported:
EXAMPLES
foo=10 x=foo
y='$'$x
echo $y
$fooeval y='$'$x
echo $y
10
should be something like
EXAMPLES
foo=10 x=foo
y='$'$x
echo $y
$foo
eval y='$'$x
echo $y
10
(echo adds newline by default)
Besides, it should be considered, if commands and outputs could be
distinguished in the example.
