Binutils documentation uses a mix of spelling for the compound word "command-line X". According to [1]: "Sometimes compound words are written separately (nail polish), sometimes with a hyphen (short-sighted) and sometimes as one word (eyelashes). Often new compounds are written as two separate words and, as they become more familiar, they are either connected with a hyphen (-) or made into one word." I think command-line X is common enough in our industry that the two workds command and line should be connected. Since command-line is more common than commandline, I propose to update binutils documentation to consistently use "command-line" when this is used as an adjective to a noun (eg. command-line argument, command-line switch, command-line option and command-line flag). I've left occurences of "the command line" as is. I've also left gdb, sim and readline alone and have only touched public documentation (texi and NEWS files).

@cindex Epiphany line comment character
|
|
The presence of a @samp{;} on a line indicates the start
|
|
of a comment that extends to the end of the current line.
|
|
|
|
If a @samp{#} appears as the first character of a line then the whole
|
|
line is treated as a comment, but in this case the line could also be
|
|
a logical line number directive (@pxref{Comments}) or a preprocessor
|
|
control command (@pxref{Preprocessing}).

The @samp{`} character can be used to separate statements on the same

line.
