This should be @itemx, not @item (since this is in a @table). Or did
you intend to remove "@item quit"?
Yes, you are right. It's my typo.

I think "without single quotes" is ambiguous. I suggest "not
including single quote characters @samp{'}" instead. I also suggest
to use @samp, not @code here. A bare @code is IMHO not suitable for
character constants, as it lacks the delimiting quotes.
I agree.

I don't see the rationale for this change. Could you please explain?
Look at the printable copy. Single quotes around `-Tsection address'
looks better.
