Description Thomas H.P. Andersen 2012-09-04 17:37:34 UTC
I going through all the documentation in man/ fixing typos and such. I also grep'ed the full source to catch similar typos elsewhere in the source.

A lot fixes like "the the" => "the" (manually checked each case of course). Also some changes from British "behaviour" to US "behavior", missing words, etc, etc.

I am not done yet but the patch is already close to 500 lines so I thought it would be nice to get some review before it gets even bigger.

Typo fixes for logind.conf.xml and os-release.xml

(The documentation in man/logind.conf.xml could use some more love. Specifically the wording for InhibitDelayMaxSec and NAutoVTs could be improved.)

Thanks! Much appreciated!

Tsss, I actually prefer the british spelling. It is after all what I learned in school ;-).

Merged all but this one which doesn't apply anymore. Could you please rebase it? (In reply to comment #0)

I also spent some time rewording the NAutoVTs= part a bit.

Typo fixes for loginctl.xml (v2)

Thanks!

Rebased patch for loginctl.xml attached.

Still got 90+ man pages to go though, so I hope to add more patches soon.

Thanks a ton for all these fixes, much appreciated!
