David Adam 02d82dcf85 docs: update all command synopsis formatting
Adds synopses for those commands missing them.

Moves all synopsis sections to code blocks. This improves the appearance, although highlighting as
fish code may not be the ideal appearance.

.. _cmd-continue:
continue - skip the remainder of the current iteration of the current inner loop
================================================================================
Synopsis
--------
::
LOOP_CONSTRUCT; [COMMANDS...;] continue; [COMMANDS...;] end
Description
-----------
``continue`` skips the remainder of the current iteration of the current inner loop, such as a :ref:`for <cmd-for>` loop or a :ref:`while <cmd-while>` loop. It is usually added inside of a conditional block such as an :ref:`if <cmd-if>` statement or a :ref:`switch <cmd-switch>` statement.
Example
-------
The following code removes all tmp files that do not contain the word smurf.
::
for i in *.tmp
if grep smurf $i
continue
end
# This "rm" is skipped over if "continue" is executed.
rm $i
# As is this "echo"
echo $i
end
