Thanks for working to improve the docs.  I do have some requests, though,
starting with: please provide a changelog for all of your patches.

This patch has been line-wrapped by your mailer.  Please email a patch to
yourself and be sure that you can apply it before trying again.  You can
check Documentation/process/email-clients.rst for information on taming
email clients.

Also, please put spaces after periods.

Readers of this document will know what "CTRL-O" (or "^O") means, that does
not need to be spelled out.

This, though, is rather less clear.  What does "pass" mean in this context?
We all know what ^ and - are.  But what do we do with them?  Just type them
in sequence?  If so, please say so.  Do they have to be after a newline or
anything like that?

Also, please format the docs with "make htmldocs" or the like and make sure
the right thing happens with your changes.

Thanks,
