there are some strings printed by configure, that are not properly formatted, like https://github.com/eggheads/eggdrop/blob/6f965acd1310aba05f3cfd54dbc732c4e3765775/aclocal.m4#L1262 autoconf can help formatting such text (no need to pad with whitespace or newline, default width should be 79 chars) with AS_HELP_STRING, see: https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.70/html_node/Pretty-Help-Strings.html demo is inside PR #1224
