Altered references to "a startup file" to "startup files".
Added detail to a reference to the bash info page. Tweaked
description of mafunctions caused by invalid locales. Clarified
descripton of extended ASCII characters. Every byte has the
high-order bit *set*; in extended ASCII, that bit is *on*.

a613960c4b Removed redundant verbiage. Rewrote a very clumsy sentence.
To speak of a difference (implying subtraction) and a factor
(multiplication) as equivalent is confusing at best.

"ext{234}" file systems. Clean up English idiom here and there.
Standardize the spelling of "file system"; unless it's part of a
command or something like that, it should be written as two words.

gawk: LN='ln -f' is an overridden make variable, not environment variable
`LN='ln -f' make install` won't work.

The terminlogy "override" is from section 9.5 of "info make".

baf93f520f Capitalized the name of the package. Removed "pwait" from the

0c4501b5b1 Patch capitalization. Substitute "spell-checking" for "spell":
"Spell" can be a noun or a verb, but it's never an adjective.

258e50e86f Modified list of tc subcommands to match the man page. Note that the
help screen doesn't match the man page. Also, there's an action
("tc chain") in the synopsis section that is not further explained
in the body of man tc. Documentation may be inaccurate.

75aef881b7 Changed "front-end" to "front end". Webster says the hyphenated
version is an adjective. When "front end" is a noun, as it is here,
it should be spelled as two words.
2022-12-11 16:47:14 -06:00
David Bryant
f07d91ba37 Corrected idiom in section about "arpd". Corrected spelling of "front
end" -- it's twp words, not one. Changed square brackets to parentheses;
square brackets should only be used to delimit editorial remarks. Removed
one definite article referring to the plural; "the" implies a single
object. Changed "amount" to "number". In English, an amount refers to
a continuous quantity, while a number refers to discrete objects (like
networking packetts). Added a qualifier in the description of "ip":
the list of commands is not exhaustive. Modified a few program
descriptons to improve consistency of style. Changed QOS and COS
to QoS and CoS after researching these abbreviations on the internet.
"Quality of Service" and "Class of Service" appear, to me, to be the
most common way of writing these phrases.

mood where that was appropriate.

libffi: style "libffi" (library name) with XML tag
As we are using "Libffi" for package name, I guess "libffi" (lower case)
means the library.  So decorate it like how we handle other library
names.
