I've re-jigged the run man page so that each option's text begins with the cli's help text for that flag, and then ay subsequent lines in the man page are carried forward.

NAME
docker-images - List images
SYNOPSIS
docker images [-a|--all[=false]] [-f|--filter[=[]]] [--no-trunc[=false]] [-q|--quiet[=false]] [REPOSITORY]
DESCRIPTION
This command lists the images stored in the local Docker repository.
By default, intermediate images, used during builds, are not listed. Some of the output, e.g., image ID, is truncated, for space reasons. However the truncated image ID, and often the first few characters, are enough to be used in other Docker commands that use the image ID. The output includes repository, tag, image ID, date created and the virtual size.
The title REPOSITORY for the first title may seem confusing. It is essentially the image name. However, because you can tag a specific image, and multiple tags (image instances) can be associated with a single name, the name is really a repository for all tagged images of the same name. For example consider an image called fedora. It may be tagged with 18, 19, or 20, etc. to manage different versions.
OPTIONS
-a, --all=true|false Show all images (by default filter out the intermediate image layers). The default is false.
-f, --filter=[] Provide filter values (i.e. 'dangling=true')
--no-trunc=true|false Don't truncate output. The default is false.
-q, --quiet=true|false Only show numeric IDs. The default is false.
EXAMPLES
Listing the images
To list the images in a local repository (not the registry) run:
docker images
The list will contain the image repository name, a tag for the image, and an image ID, when it was created and its virtual size. Columns: REPOSITORY, TAG, IMAGE ID, CREATED, and VIRTUAL SIZE.
To get a verbose list of images which contains all the intermediate images used in builds use -a:
docker images -a
Listing only the shortened image IDs
Listing just the shortened image IDs. This can be useful for some automated tools.
docker images -q
