I added the flags for all the commands and simplified accordingly the
conditionals.  I also took that opportunity to move some commands from
containing simple text to the more restrictive containing plain text.
It is less of a change as it may seem, as there was already parsing
errors for those commands with @-commands on their lines, like "bad
argument to...", so what this change really does is adding somewhat
redundant warnings to the errors, but I think that it is more consistent
like that.
