Boštjan, please stop this trolling. You were told by two core-devs
that it won't be fixed. There's no use keeping spamming the mailing
list.

A short googling shows that the jury is still out on the question of
whether command-line is more correct than command line. Some places
use a hyphen, some don't. This really isn't important enough to call
for hunting out hyphen-less spellings throughout the docs.

If you want to contribute to Python, please find issues with substance
to raise. As it is now, you're only harming Python by wasting the time
of core developers.
