Fixes #493

-The :ref:`convert command <cli_convert>` and the :ref:`insert -\\-convert <cli_insert_convert>` and :ref:`query -\\-functions <cli_query_functions>` options can be provided with a Python script that imports additional modules from the ``sqlite-utils`` environment.
+The :ref:`convert command <cli_convert>` and the :ref:`insert <cli_insert_convert>` ``--convert`` and :ref:`query <cli_query_functions>` ``--functions`` options can be provided with a Python script that imports additional modules from the ``sqlite-utils`` environment.
 
 You can install packages from PyPI directly into the correct environment using ``sqlite-utils install <package>``. This is a wrapper around ``pip install``.
