 If the second argument is one of the binary conditional
 operators (@pxref{Bash Conditional Expressions}), the
 result of the expression is the result of the binary test using the
 first and third arguments as operands.
 The @samp{-a} and @samp{-o} operators are considered binary operators
 when there are three arguments.
+@item
 If the first argument is @samp{!}, the value is the negation of
 the two-argument test using the second and third arguments.

 If the first argument is exactly @samp{(} and the third argument is
 exactly @samp{)}, the result is the one-argument test of the second
 argument.
