Again, not trying to be pedantic but I was playing around with a popular
spell checking tool and found the following errors in the Snort 2.8.5.1
manual:

Page 13, the word "substitue" should be "substitute".

Page 16, the word "specifiy" should be "specify".

Page 16, the word "specifiy" should be "specify".

Page 26, the word "occurr" should be "occur".

Page 32, the word "compatibilty" should be "compatibility".

Page 32, the word "occurances" should be "occurrences".

Page 34, the word "occurance" should be "occurrence".

Page 35, the word "occurance" should be "occurrence".

Page 37, the word "orginal" should be "original".

Page 38, the word 'postives" should be "positives".

Page 41, the word "legimite" should be "legitimate".

Page 44, the word "delimiated" should be "delimited".

Page 49, the word "perfomance" should be "performance".

Page 53, the word "argumnet" should be "argument".

Page 56, the word "Telent" should be "Telnet".

Page 56, the words "the the" should just be "the".

Page 57, the word "normailzed" should be "normalized".

Page 57, the word "cooresponding' should be "corresponding".

Page 63, the word "Respone" should be "Response".

Page 64, the word "proprocessor" should be "preprocessor".

Page 68, the word "preprosessor" should be "preprocessor".


It is interesting that these errors are fairly evenly distributed.  I
stopped on page 68.  Given the distribution of errors, there are guaranteed
to be more but that can be left as an exercise for the SourceFire intern.
