Dear Maintainer,

While trying to recover .swp file after a hard shutdown, I looked up the
man page for the -r option. Then had trouble recovering the .swp
file because the relevant text in /usr/share/man/man1/vim.1.gz says:


       -r {file}   Recovery mode.  The swap file is used to recover a crashed
                   editing session.  The swap file is a file with the same
                   filename as the text file with ".swp" appended.  See ":help
                   recovery".

I suggest:

       -r {file}   Recovery mode.  The swap file is used to recover a crashed
                   editing session.  The swap file is a file with the same
                   filename as the text file, but with "." prepended, and
                   with ".swp" appended.  See ":help recovery".
