Thank you.

Besides fixing a few too long lines (to silence make syntax-check),
I have also sorted the options alphabetically and improved the
indentation for short/long options, plus 2 spaces between the options
and the description.
I changed a few option descriptions. I hope this is okay for you.

Furthermore, I've also sorted the options in the texinfo documentation.
While already there, I fixed the style to have a double-blank
after periods.

I'll push tomorrow unless I receive further comments.

Have a nice day,
Berny
