Or add '---help---' to zconf.gperf I guess, to avoid special-casing it. Would
need to add '-' to the

n    [A-Za-z0-9_]

definition in zconf.l in that case too.

That should be safe provided the gperf part works out, since zconf.y should
verify that the T_WORD has the expected form. (As a side note, the first token
on a line is always a keyword, except for within help texts, which are handled
specially.)

I guess that might change the meaning of lines like "foo-bar" if '-' is
introduced as an operator, but that seems kinda academic as 'foo' would
probably still be a keyword. It's already broken due to the <PARAM> regex
({n}|[-/.])+ having '-' in it too.
