Package: zip
Version: 2.31-1
Severity: minor

Please change this poorly worded passage:

   -r     Travel the directory structure recursively; for example:

                 zip -r foo foo

          In this case, all the files and directories in foo are saved  in
          a zip archive named foo.zip, ...

to this much more clear passage:

   -r     Travel the directory structure recursively, for example:

                 zip -r foo bar

          In this case, all the files and directories in bar are saved  in
          a zip archive named foo.zip,

Two corrections:

1. Using "zip -r foo foo" to illustrate something is insane.  It's better
   to illustrate which is the path and which is the zip file.

2. There should be a comma after the word "recursively", not a semi-colon,
   since "for example: A" has no subject and is therefore not a clause.
