Uniform tics, noteable arguments addition.

Changed all N-tics for preformatted/code text into single tics if that code was sinle line (i.e. bash commands, compiler arguments)
Added --main-module, --module-dir to Notable arguments section.
Realized that the text <blah blah> was disappering, so changed it to `<bla bla>`. Need to confirm it success.
