be in italics


(95) last sentence

    "A lot of 'oddball' time zones are included: for example, the state
    of Indiana, for which large parts observe Daylight Saving Time ..."

changed to

    "A lot of 'oddball' time zones are included: for example, the state
    of Indiana, which large parts of which don't observe Daylight Saving 
    Time ..."


{355} section 20.09, para. 2, line 1,

    "However, some versions of tar don't understand wildcards"

changed to

    "However, in general, tar doesn't understand wildcards"

("tar" is still in italic.)


and the code line

    % tar xvf /dev/rst0 `tar tf /dev/rst0 | grep 'pattern'`

changed to

    % tar xvf /dev/rst0 `tar tf /dev/rst0 | egrep 'lib/(foo\bar)'`

(The entire line is in constant width bold font.)


and in para. 3, line 2

    "The pattern supplied grep selects the file(s) you want"

changed to 

    "The pattern supplied to egrep (27.05) selects pathnames containing

("egrep (27.05)" is a gray cross-reference, and "lib/foo" and "lib/bar"
are in italic.)
