9e1d1c1566 Except for some rare cases, always use punctuation to finish a 
sentence at the end of a paragraph so that the readers don't think
that some text is missing.

Consistently use colons to finish sentences introductory to examples.

1a445039a6 Don't give a poor advice of omitting <p> tags in HTML. 
In the presence of CSS, wrapping text in <p></p>
can make it render quite differently.

a08f137b33 Don't give a poor example of letting special characters slip 
into text cut'n'pasted to a <pre> HTML element.  Warn readers
that such characters are likely to appear in plain-text sources
often used to copy pre-formatted text from.

3735e320fd Corrected implication that /boot/boot0 comes from MBR. 
Added detail about fdisk and /boot/mbr to head off reader assumption
that FreeBSD's boot manager is FreeBSD-fdisk's default boot manager.

Added detail to statement about 512 byte boot program
to head off debatable claims that it's untrue, and also
to inform the reader.

ce4b41cd27 Fix template rules which use a variable reference in the value of the match 
attribute.  This is not allowed according to "5.3 Defining Template Rules"
in REC-xslt-19991116, XSL Transformations (XSLT) Version 1.0.
The xsltproc utility prior to version 1.1.15 allowed this erroneously
but in the latest version it has been fixed.
