This line seems to be incomplete. This fix come from the translation to spanish of @fjsevilla-dev on https://github.com/python/python-docs-es/pull/758/file. reading the proposal for the translate has sense add `the next lines`. |

I can see how the current phrasing gives one pause, and might seem incomplete, but it is not incorrect. The sense of Additionally, users can run one of :: <yourscript> -h <yourscript> --help and optparse will ... is "Additionally, users can run one of ``<yourscript> -h`` or ``<yourscript> --help`` and optparse will ...". I personally prefer this running text form with in-line code markup to the block form. What do you think? If we keep the block form, I slightly prefer 'one of the following' to 'one of the next lines' but cannot say why. |

I agree with Terry that the current form is not incorrect, as well as with his suggestion to inline the commands for printing the usage info. |

Hi Terry and Tal Einat, I can't say too much because I am not English native, and my English is very basic. When I read the docs and the translation from python-docs-es, that sentence make me feel how if something is missing, but I understand the intention with the Terry explanation. I will change the patch for ``Additionally, users can run one of the following ::`` What about now? |
