 On Tue, Feb 08, 2005 at 07:02:01PM -0700 I heard the voice of
 Jesus R. Camou, and lo! it spake thus:
 > >Category:       docs

 I'm not sure either of these are actually correct...
 
 > 		o s/defence/defense/g  (US english spelling)
 
 Since this is a quote, what matters isn't contemporary US English
 spelling, but rather what's in the document, which in this case IS
 'defence'.
 
 > 		o sentence correction:
 > 		  to mark up a command's options -> to mark up a command's option
 
 This reads right to me as it is (pluralized).
