Johannes Altmanninger 2a98b7a593 docs synopsis: make all placeholder arguments uppercase
man(1) uses lowercase placeholders but we usually don't.  Additionally,
the new synopsis autoformatting only recognizes placeholders if they
are uppercase. Use uppercase for all placeholders.

realpath - convert a path to an absolute path without symlinks
==============================================================
Synopsis
--------
.. synopsis::
realpath [OPTIONS] PATH
Description
-----------
.. only:: builder_man
NOTE: This page documents the fish builtin ``realpath``.
To see the documentation on the ``realpath`` command you might have,
use ``command man realpath``.
:program:`realpath` follows all symbolic links encountered for the provided :envvar:`PATH`, printing the absolute path resolved. :ref:`fish <cmd-fish>` provides a :command:`realpath`-alike builtin intended to be enrich systems where no such command is installed by default.
If a :command:`realpath` command exists, that will be preferred.
``builtin realpath`` will explicitly use the fish implementation of :command:`realpath`.
The following options are available:
- ``-s`` or ``--no-symlinks``: Don't resolve symlinks, only make paths absolute, squash multiple slashes and remove trailing slashes.
