Description Siebrand Mazeland 2005-02-27 17:40:10 UTC

Current version of the handbook was written over more than a decade.
There is a lot of legacy SGML in there. Time for an update at specific
points.

Fix: 

All changes below throughout FreeBSD Handbook:
- Use entity for FreeBSD where applicable
- Use entity for Linux where applicable
- Honor various trademarks where applicable
- Add &nbsp; between connected words where needed
- Fix Ports Collection capitalisation where needed
- Added &nbsp; between numbers and units

Additional changes:
- Removed 2 in-text tabs in vinum/chapter.sgml. They may mess up formatting.

Patch: http://nitro.dk/~siebrand/entities.patch (404 KB)
How-To-Repeat: Check out the source code for the handbook.

While I agree that clean ups like these are good and useful, I 
feel they should be applied while actively working in a specific 
area instead of a global search and replace.  Thank you for the 
submission!
