2001-10-06- use the new m4.common shared instructions.Miod Vallat

2001-10-02I'm so good I managed to cut'n'paste the same typo over all those files.Miod Vallat
2001-10-02Rework the floppy and miniroot description:Miod Vallat
- try to keep description information together, with no duplicate circumlocutions - arches which have several floppies shouldn't say there is THE floppy, then THE floppy, and once more THE floppy. Change plural accordingly for the general description of earch floppy image possibilities, if more than one.

1998-07-05s/2\.3/OSREV/gTodd T. Fries
Please note that in distrib/notes and per sys.mk in Makefiles globally, OSrev=23 OSREV=2.3 In m4, if you are needing this to be in the middle of the word, such as for 'floppy23.fs' use: 'floppy{:--:}OSrev.fs' .. as I changed the quotes to '{:-' and '-:}' respectively to avoid double quoting in the distrib/notes documents.
