The patch below fixes a few spelling mistakes that are being picked up
by the Debian lintian tool (which checks packages).
If you prefer to fix these manually, grep for "specifed", "preceeded"
and "ommitted" in the source. There's also one instance of a minus sign
in sh.1 that needs \ quoting so that it is a minus and not a hyphen in
UTF-8 locales.
While minor, I'd appreciate if these fixes could be applied.
Thanks
Oliver
