--blank-line::
--no-blank-line::
	Controls if a blank line to split paragraphs is inserted
        when appending (the default is true).

Use

	int blankline = 1;

to avoid double negative, which is confusing and error prone.

	OPT_BOOL(0, "blank-line", &blankline,

Then, the conditional would read more naturally without double
negation.

		if (blank_line && d.buf.len && prev_buf && size)

I do not know and I am not judging (yet) if the goal of the patch is
sensible (in other words, if we should have such an option), but if
we were to do so, I would expect the implementation to look more
like what I outlined above.

Thanks.
