[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

I've found an inconsistency in the Introduction to eshell.texi. It
specifies as part of
a search pattern for Word Document files that are 100k or larger and six
months or older the following footnoted pattern:

ls -lt **/*.doc(Lk+50aM+5)

That nets me files bigger than 50k, not the 100k specified in the
paragraph. Here's
a quick diff supplying a correction.
