Subject: [nft PATCH 1/2] nft.8: Fix and enhance synopsis section
Date: Thu, 17 Aug 2017 15:38:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170817133900.21946-2-phil@nwl.cc> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170817133900.21946-1-phil@nwl.cc>

This patch addresses shortcomings in the main synopsis section
illustrating possible invocations of nft command:

- Fix font styles to correctly put options into bold font and meta
  characters (brackets, pipes) into normal font.

- Add missing options to synopsis line.

- Use curly braces where either one of the alternatives is required.

- Remove choice="opt" attribute since that is the default anyway.

- Note that --includepath option is allowed to be given multiple times.
