Direct line continuations

With a vertical slash/pipe character (|) you declare a direct line continuation, whatever you write on that line is also appened to the previous field, but directly and without any spacing inbetween:

Final remark: spaced and direct line continuations can be mixed in any fashion:

command: hashify -i this-is-very-long-i-dont-even-know-when-this-key-is-
|                   going-to-end-therefore-i-am-happy-about-the-existence-
|                   of-direct-line-continuations
\                -o output.hashed
\                --verbose
