I'm sure it's not the case. Here, you need to turn your description from this:
+.IPs <threshold>

+The threshold for the coring. The range can be between 0 to 255. 

+Default is 0 (no coring).

+.IPs <black>

+If the black parameter is set to 1, then the threshold value is used as the

+value for the luminance. This can avoid hard edges and abrupt color changes

+but results in a more gray like black.

+.RE

into this:

+.IPs <0\-255>

+The threshold for the coring (default: 0 no coring).
+.IPs <black>

+If the black parameter is set to 1, then the threshold value is used as the

+value for the luminance.
+This can avoid hard edges and abrupt color changes but results in a
+more gray like black.

+.RE

See what I mean? :-)

He probably did, but Rich is not the only person who may be interested
in using your filter, therefore it's a good idea to document things a
bit more. :o)
