@jreback, I originally had it in the form as you suggest, but the 2nd sentence is too long to be in one line, and it is not allowed to have the heading in 2 lines.


It comprises info about hosting operation system, pandas version,
and versions of other installed relative packages.

Parameters
----------
as_json : str or bool, default False
* If False, outputs info in a human readable form to the console.
* If str, it will be considered as a path to a file.
Info will be written to that file in JSON format.
* If True, outputs info in JSON format to the console.
