  151 +The same option can be specified several times, with different arguments, which will all
  152 +be recorded in order of appearance. An example:
  153 +
  154 +~~~
  155 +--use train --use bus --use ferry
  156 +~~~
  157 +
  158 +this is supported through the use of a vector of value for the option:
