311250560d o Change one usage of "i.e." to "e.g." where it makes more sense, and remove
an unnecessary colon.

o If X is the chief weakness of something, then it actually is the most
  important one.  Remove some confusing text from a sentence.

0064207a88 handbook/*
- Use trademark entities.
 - Add trademark attributions.
 - Always use correct case for trademarks.
 - Don't join trademarks with other words, e.g. using hyphens.
 - Don't use trademarks as nouns (e.g. don't use "Windows NT's").

diskless-x/article.sgml:
 - While I'm here anyway add trademark tags for all trademarks, now
   that the stylesheet handles it right.

trademark.ent:
 - Add entities for more trademarks / companies.

Also rename the 3Com trademark entity from t3com to tm.3com.  This
should make the entity naming convention a bit more consitent.  This is
done now since the entity is not used too many places yet.

3d6720c140 <programlisting> tags are rendered as blocks, and are not normally
used inside of a <para>.  Previously, that was done here, which was
fine until I accidentally wrapped the paragraph which messes up the
formatting since <programlistings> are sensisitve to \n.  This change
separates out the <programlisting> from the <para>, as is done
elsewhere in the handbook.  Thanks to Tom Hukins for spotting my error
in accidentally wrapping the <programlisting>.

We still need to update the Handbook and many manpages to provide
recommendations for situations in which routed is inadequate.  All I
have done is fix the broken link.
