Yeah.
But the libabavc-options.txt contains many hints/further
informations I didn't include in the man page (IMHO it already
contains a lot ;). I thought thought about using them in a new
encoding guide, donno. But I'm not sure if all those very technical
things belong to an encoding guide (and if Michael likes to
update it). What do you think?
A similar case is vop.txt and sws*.txt.
