Michal Mazurek pointed out on tech@ that the factor.6 manual needs a bit

of clarification.  Thus, express the description both more concisely and
more precisely.  Drop details about spaces in the output formatting.
While there, update the corresponding comment in the source code.

With input from jmc@ and mestre@; detailed discussion with sobrado@.
