I noticed a few typos, so I went through and proofread the whole thing.
I also caught all of the things Sverre noted, so you can disregard his
message.

I would also say 'the "--keep-cr" option' and "the -R option" instead of
omitting the "the", but that is perhaps a matter of preference and not
grammar. I didn't fix that in this patch.
