I was catching up on the documentation (which I last read years ago) and as I read for content I spotted a few copy editing problems (subject-verb agreement, "and" instead of "are", preposition and article choice).
According to the archives the 'cygwin' list is the one to which to send user guide patches. [Thread "Where to send corrections for user's manual ?", Igor Pechtchanski and Christopher Faylor, Oct 20, 2002]. Such patches didn't fit any of the (other) lists. Attached are (1) ChangeLog entry per the pointers in http://cygwin.com/contrib.html and the GNU ChangeLog standards and (2) unified diff against the anon cvs sources (as of about 2200GMT 20080626). It's been quite a few years since I've last contributed to projects (e.g. elisp manual in 1990s, gmake test builds, etc). Given the overhead (pointer chasing, etc, etc), I hope these changes make it into the tree and the online docs. Fred
