English language grammar does not allow usage of the word "allows" directly followed by an infinitive, declaring constructs like "something allows to do somestuff" un-grammatical. Often it is possible to just insert "one" between "allows" and "to" to make the construct grammatical, but usually it is better to re-phrase the statement. This patch tries to fix 3 examples of "allows to" usage in qemu doc, but does not address comments in the code with similar constructs. It also adds missing "the" in the same line. Signed-off-by: Michael Tokarev <mjt@tls.msk.ru> --- v2: catch one more occurence of the same construct in qemu-options.hx, in vnc encodings section. This statement may need rewriting which I don't provide in this patch, which just fixes the grammar. qemu-doc.texi | 2 +- qemu-options.hx | 5 +++-- 2 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
