man-pages(7) has [1]: > For commands, this shows the syntax of the command and its arguments > (including options); boldface is used for as-is text and italics are > used to indicate replaceable arguments. Brackets ([]) surround > optional arguments, vertical bars (|) separate choices, and ellipses > (...) can be repeated. I've adjusted our SYNOPSIS entries to match that formatting, and generally tried to make them more consistent with the precedent set by the man-pages project. Outside of the SYNOPSIS entry, I prefer using backticks for literals, although in some places I've left the ** bolding to keep things visually similar to a nearby SYNOPSIS entry.

NAME
podman-rm - Remove one or more containers
SYNOPSIS
podman rm [options] container
DESCRIPTION
podman rm will remove one or more containers from the host. The container name or ID can be used. This does not remove images. Running containers will not be removed without the -f option
OPTIONS
--force, f
Force the removal of a running container
--all, a
Remove all containers. Can be used in conjunction with -f as well.
--latest, -l
Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you use methods other than Podman to run containers such as CRI-O, the last started container could be from either of those methods.
EXAMPLE
podman rm mywebserver
podman rm mywebserver myflaskserver 860a4b23
podman rm -f 860a4b23
podman rm -f -a
podman rm -f --latest
