It is unclear what "but not on ..." in the description and it is
still unclear with the examples.  Does this mean

	Don't: ( -q | --quiet )

In other words, "on the inside of" above is meant to forbid spaces
immediately after opening or before closing a [] or () pair?

Other than that, I think these are good guidelines to have.

Thanks.
