non-obvious help needed

Hi,

Here is some texi source:

@menu
* unshar usage::                  unshar help/usage (--help)
* unshar directory::              directory option (-d)
* unshar overwrite::              overwrite option (-c)
* unshar force::                  force option (-f)
* unshar split-at::               split-at option (-E)
* unshar exit-0::                 exit-0 option (-e)
* unshar config::                 presetting/configuring unshar
* unshar exit status::            exit status
* unshar Authors::                Authors
* unshar Reporting Bugs::         Reporting Bugs
@end menu

@node unshar usage
@subsection unshar help/usage (--help)
@cindex unshar help

This is the automatically generated usage text for unshar.

The text printed is the same whether selected with the @code{help} option
(--help) or the @code{more-help} option (-!).  @code{more-help} will print

The "--help" renders in the menu with both hyphens.
The ones in the @subsection line and the later text
are unhelpfully "fixed up" and render with one hyphen.
How do I tell texi to leave my hyphens alone?

(The document is not hand edited, by the way.  I go
to a lot of trouble to figure out how the program
[unshar in this case] requests help and spread that
information around the document.  Should I just replace
all hyphens with "@-" for example?)

Thanks!  - Bruce
