Subject: real pedantic whining: "devicetree" isn't really a single word
Date: Wed, 2 Jul 2014 15:01:08 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.2.11.1407021457320.4254@localhost> (raw)
when writing/editing docs, i typically follow the lead of the
developer of the software/feature, and it seems that the proper
spelling of "device tree" is, well, "device tree" (two words).
i won't touch any of that now, but it may be that to be rigourously
correct, a single global change should fix references to that anywhere
it's not being used as a variable name.
anyway, just something to ponder whether it's worth doing some time
down the road. i *warned* you i was picky, but did you listen?
nooooo...
