[PATCH 5/6] doc: improve description of the -D option in find.1


From: Bernhard Voelker
Subject: [PATCH 5/6] doc: improve description of the -D option in find.1
Date: Tue, 16 Feb 2016 23:47:14 +0100

* find/find.1 (-D): Change argument name from "debugoptions" to
"debugopts" to match the synopsis, thus making searching in the man
page easier.  While at it, sort possible arguments alphabetically.
