Hello,

I think there may be a minor formatting issue in the set​ builtin section of the Bash manual 
(https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/The-Set-Builtin.html). In the description of 
the "x​" option, the second "for" in the first sentence is formatted as inline 
code but I believe it should be formatted as regular text.

So instead of "arithmetic ​`for​​` commands" I believe it should be "arithmetic for 
commands" all in regular text. If I am mistaken then please ignore this email.

Thanks for the report. In this use, `for' is a reserved word, and reserved
words are emphasized in the text.
