Here are a few more grammatical corrections to the excellent filesystem documentation.

Default Name Check mechanism Dangers second sentence:

"Since global variables are considered harmful [Wulf-Shaw-73], class path allows the default name check function can be set only once, and only before the first use."

should be:

"Since global variables are considered harmful [Wulf-Shaw-73], class path allows that the default name check function can be set only once, and only before the first use."

or

"Since global variables are considered harmful [Wulf-Shaw-73], class path allows the default name check function to be set only once, and only before the first use."

Fixed.

Rationale Const vs non-const returns last sentence:

"A requirement that path::iterator not be a non-class type was added to eliminate errors non-const iterator errors."

should be:

"A requirement that path::iterator not be a non-class type was added to eliminate non-const iterator errors."

or better:

"A requirement that path::iterator be a class type was added to eliminate non-const iterator errors."

Fixed.

Finally, in operations.hpp, links on "class directory_iterator" and "other functions" to their explanations further down the page do not work using IE, Netscape, or Opera, so I imagine some HTML error.

Fixed. Thanks, --Beman
