What if we fix the syntax-check instead and allow longer than 80
character lines in case they have no space in it, or exactly one space
(to allow --parameter option,option,option,...)?  That would make even
corner cases easier to review, e.g. when you remove or add a parameter
into the long list of parameters.

The alternative that I'm actually thinking is that we make
syntax-check skip line length on all these .args files.

Instead re-run the 'test-wrap-argv.pl' script during
syntax-check, and validate that no changeas are made.

This will guarantee that all our .args files are always
using our ideal formatting / line wrapping rules.

Then I could remove these two special cases and just let
us have "-arg value" lines exceed 80 characters when
they need to


OK, if that doesn't take more time then then simple check, so that the
build time isn't getting longer and longer.

You could've removed newlines from all lines and rewrap everything so
we're consistent.

NB, some files have multiple commands in them, so we can't blindly
remove all new lines. We have to preserve boundaries between
commands.


Oh, I missed that.
