I think I've probably banged my head on this at some point but don't
have an immediate idea.

Was there a way to break a line in Texinfo?

For the command-line options, you can use @option{...}
(see: (info "(texinfo) @option")).

the small problem I've seen above I'll happily try it and if it passes
merge it.
