Thanks.

This is OK, but please make the lines shorter by a couple of
characters.

This separates -a and ADDR, which can confuse the reader.  Suggest to
reword:

  @item @var{addr}
  is either the name of a function, or an address anywhere in
  function's code.  If @code{-a} followed by an @var{addr} is used,
  the specified function will be disassembled

The last sentence can be dropped if you agree with my rewording, as it
is now redundant.

The documentation parts are OK with the above fixed.
