d1ec2ee4a0 Remove stub for Mini-cartridge section that has been here for at least
4 years.  No one is going to write this section anytime soon, it's not
really needed anyway, so remove the 'XXX' empty subsection and one
link to this empty section.

e55989777d Wrap long lines in <programlisting> and <screen> sections. These flow

d554acbbc3 Rewrite the synopsis. Merge two paragraphs into one. Start off this
chapter by talking about security features of FreeBSD, rather than the
history of the TrustedBSD project.

c3cfdf0dca * Notes in <warning> should not begin with 'Please note that'. The
<warning> tag already expresses this information and so the text will
  be rendered appropriately.
* Improve wording in synopsis.
* Remove redundant sentences and simplify section about what will not
  be covered in this chapter.
* Omit unnecessary words and improve grammar as appropriate
* Remove redundant paragraph.
* Use serial comma in list of elements, as mandated by doc project primer.

1643cf6500 * This chapter makes no mention of downloading -CURRENT or -STABLE
sources with CVSup, so remove that pre-requisite from the synopsis.

* Remove trhodes user id in a few examples with 'user1' and add a
  replaceable tag around this user id so that it is rendered in italics.

* Comment out a stub section that says something like "This should be
  written".  The text is quite good without it, and when this planned
  section is added it will be even better.  The Handbook is past
  the point where we should have 'This should be written' stub
  chapters or sections.

4cd0c55b13 * Fix grammar mistakes and redundant clauses in the first paragraph.
* Remove 'as more features are added, they will be added here'.  That
  goes without saying for the entire Handbook.
* Break up a list of disagreeing clauses into two separate sentences.
* Replace a colon with a semicolon.
* Remove colorful language describing some users as irrational in
  favor of more succinct exposition.

56ad6abd0c Remove several redundant sentences about installing a port. By this
point of the Handbook, we should just say "install the sysutils/cvsup
package or port" and be done with it, rather than giving the user a
tutorial on installing software from ports every other paragraph when
a different port is mentioned.

Also, add 'frame="none"' to <informaltables> in this chapter.

Also, add a colwidth attribute that makes the print output look better

84f8ee0a15 Use relative URLs when URL_RELPREFIX is defined and URLS_ABSOLUTE
is not defined.

- URL_RELPREFIX must always point the top page's URL
  (http://www.FreeBSD.org) in relative form, defined in Makefile.

- &url.base; can be used in doc/<langcode>/*.  It will be
  replaced with the real URL which points the top page.

For translators: Please make sure to define URL_RELPREFIX to
point the top page.  The localized docs have different directory
hierarchy in its URL from the English version.
