| A job spec already starts with %.
That's not what was meant.
In, for example:
jinx$ help -s wait
wait: wait [-fn] [id ...]
the command name appears both before and after the ':', as if to
say "The usage for the wait command is "wait" optional 'f' and 'n' flags,
and some number of optional "id" args.
On the other hand:
jinx$ help -s %
%: job_spec [&]
whetre the '%' command name is missing. This is actually something of
a weird case, as a command which consists entirely of a job_spec is
treated the same as the '% job_spec' command (ie: one can use either "%1"
or "% %1") so the help probably needs to be enhanced even more.
