Both those statements are correct; but what is being named here is not the executable, but the configuration database. Maybe “Debconf” for that term? > Perhaps s/stdout/standard output/ (or s/stdout/STDOUT/) throughout. Either leave it as “stdout” (a term of art, probably appropriate for the intended audience) or use “standard output”. I don't think “STDOUT” will help. > > <para> > > The <literal>generate</literal> command uses a configuration file to > > describe the > > archives that are going to be generated.

The name of the system is “BIND”, an acronym.
