I apologize for the previous mail.
Thank you for clarification and guidance.

I did look at some of the other documentation files (and now also grepped
the whole directory for `--' and `\--' occurences), but wasn't able to see
any rule or consistence in the usage. Whether it is an indication of
real inconsistence or just another example of my ignorance I do not know
(not now, at least).

The stray backslashes were fixed by setting ASCIIDOC8, thanks again.

Štěpán Němec
