>Description:
	I was unable to make any sense of the descriptions of the -r
        and -w options and how they interact. After having read the
        source code, I propose a change (see below).

>How-To-Repeat:
        N/A

>Fix:
	Proposed new wording:

        -w    Update the in-core label if it has been changed.

        -r    In conjunction with -w, also update the on-disk label.
