Hi,

Thanks for pushing this to bug-coreutils. I never thought about this
for myself.

> +   [-]parodd     set odd parity (or even parity with '-')\n\

another (and maybe clearer) way could be:

        parodd      set odd parity
       -parodd      set even parity

but I am not sure, cause it breaks with the notation of all the other
options.

Kind regards,
Michael
