[PATCH v1 06/28] cyclictest.8: Standardize --verbose paragraph formatting

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



All of cyclictest's options are described in the manpage through a single
paragraph except --verbose, which renders the verbose statistics output
format in a separate paragraph for no special reason.

Let the description text of --versbose match the other parameters style.
Beside consistency, this will also be useful when all the options will be
separated at the manpage source level.
