list_ref_names.info missing N operand of -to control description

Description

The list_ref_names (lrn) info segment includes the following description for -from and -to control args.

-from N, -fm N
   allows you to specify a range of segment numbers.  You can use it
   with -to; information for the segment numbers in this range is
   printed.  If you don't select -to, the highest used segment number
   is assumed.
-to
   allows you to specify a range of segment numbers.  If you supply no
   -from, the segment number of the first segment not in ring 0 is
   assumed.

The -to control_arg description is missing an N operand. Also, both descriptions should note that segment numbers are specified as octal values.

For example:

lrn -fm 230 -to 235

   231 >process_dir_dir>!BPBFmQgBBBBBBB>stack_1

   232 >process_dir_dir>!BPBFmQgBBBBBBB>stack_2

   234 >process_dir_dir>!BPBFmQgBBBBBBB>stack_4
stack_4
r 09:56 0.130 0 level 2

lrn -fm 230 -to 239
list_ref_names: Invalid -to argument 239
r 10:01 0.127 0 level 2
