I wonder if "synopsis" is the right markup for the operator lists. I'm 
not too familiar with SGML, but the closest similar list I could find is 
this in create_operator.sgml:

Reading up on the meaning of "literallayout" at 
https://tdg.docbook.org/tdg/4.5/literallayout.html, though, it doesn't 
sound quite right either. Maybe "<simplelist type=horiz'>" ?
