Hi Jose,
Hm, I am so used to see that way of documenting the long option
names in the coreutils manual that I used it without thinking...
I was not aware that coreutils.texi used @kbd for long option names. It
didn't when I wrote up documentation for it originally, a long time ago.
It doesn't make any sense to me. I'll ask.
I guess the use of @w{--long-option-name} (a separate issue from @kbd),
especially in the middle of a paragraph, is understandable, since it is
one way to avoid line breaks at the hyphens (in TeX, anyway).
@allowcodebreaks false
would be cleaner though.
