Square brackets are commonly used to denote optional parts of a command. However, all option arguments are mandatory. Remove these brackets. This also removes some unnecessary quotation marks, and uses hyphens to connect words in option arguments. This is intended to just clean up the formatting, leaving content corrections to later patches.
