* Break input lines after commas. * Set multi-word parentheticals on their own input lines. * Break input lines at phrase boundaries more often. * Protect literals from automatic hyphenation with `\%` escape sequence. * Use \~ escape sequence instead of quoted arguments at word boundaries in option synopses.
