It looks OK. If I were doing it, which I'm not, I'd ensure it was mentioned in the synopsis, and since the above IS a synopsis, I'd just put that there. I'd also be more accurate about what the "restrictions" are. For instance, from my unfinished look at the code, it looked like it would restrict one from editing "./xxx" which is in the current directory. Maybe you should commit your change and leave the PR open in case somebody later cares enough to improve it (or better, the program).
