>Description:
In Revision 1.1010 of the FAQ document, a "the" was left in the sentence. This results in a "the this" (a minor language nit).


>How-To-Repeat:
Compare the two revisions:
https://doc.bsdgroup.de/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/book.sgml.diff?r1=1.1009;r2=1.1010;cvsroot=FreeBSD;f=h

or search for "the this" in the FAQ's book.sgml.
>Fix:
Apply the attached patch that removes the superfluous "the".
