    jh> Not sure about options formatting.

Me either.  Nothing wrong with using @table @option as you (mostly) did.
But as a matter of convention, @option is usually used for command line
options.  I'm not sure weight values, etc., are "options", semantically.
It's a gray area, as such markup tends to be.  Therefore I tend to use
@code for nearly everything.  It makes no practical difference.

Aside from that, because these particular tables (in Low-level font
comands) have such short items, I hacked in some kludges to put them on
one line in at least the Info output.  Seemed easier to read.

Thanks,
Karl
