Right, forgot about that, sorry. How about this:

@c man begin SYNOPSIS gdb
@quotation
gdb [@option{-help}] [@option{-nh}] [@option{-nx}] [@option{-q}] [@option{-batch}] [@option{-cd=}@var{dir}] [@option{-f}]@*
@w{ }[@option{-b}@w{ }@var{bps}] [@option{-tty=}@var{dev}] [@option{-s} @var{symfile}] [@option{-e}@w{ }@var{prog}] [@option{-se}@w{ }@var{prog}]@*
@w{ }[@option{-c}@w{ }@var{core}] [@option{-x}@w{ }@var{cmds}] [@option{-d}@w{ }@var{dir}] [@var{prog}|@var{core}|@var{procID}]@*
@end quotation
@c man end

It looks good in Info, but I didn't try the other formats.

On second thought, this is even better, I think:

@c man begin SYNOPSIS gdb
@example
gdb [-help] [-nx] [-q] [-batch] [-cd=@var{dir}] [-f] [-b bps] [-tty=@var{dev}]
[-s @var{symfile}] [-e @var{prog}] [-se @var{prog}] [-c @var{core}] [-x @var{file}] [-ex @var{cmd}]
[-d @var{dir}] [@var{prog}[@var{core}|@var{procID}]]
@end example
@c man end

WDYT?
