these bullet points don't seem to be indented. should they be ? the
rendering looks not that great ... but maybe it's the standard.

that last " shouldn't be there

there's two blank lines after this keyword section. is the intention for each
.PP to have two blank lines precede it in the output ? this is the only one,
so maybe the other .PP need tweaking ?

this this example discuss which env vars you had set ahead of time ? seems
like you just have LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 (which is kind of weird ... normally you
only set LANG).

i think this section would be a bit more readable if there was a blank line
before each $ prompt. relying on the bolding alone seems insufficient.
