3rd paragraph |
From the book: "In addition, every time it starts (as a subshell or a login shell),
bash looks for a file name ~/.bashrc."
This is incorrect. bash only executes ~/.bashrc if the shell is _not_ a login shell.
From the reference manual:
"When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is started, Bash reads and
executes commands from `~/.bashrc', if that file exists."

Table 15-16 row "tag" |
The "tag" row of the table describes the common client options applicable to the cvs
tag command incorrectly. See p. 806, which seems correctly to show the possible
options. The row in error should have a check at columns -D, -f, and -r, in addition
to the checks it already correctly has at columns -l and -R. (Note that the "rtag"
row of the table appears to be correct.)
