- "last-resort" is two words, not a conjoined word, it doesn't require the hyphen - "method of" is vulgar, "method for" is nicer - "recovery" becomes "recovering" from Steve Hoelzer's original version of this patch - "if you want" is nicer as "if you wish" - "you may" should be "you can"; "you may" is "you have permission to" rather than "you can"'s "it is possible to" Signed-off-by: Andy Parkins <redacted> --- My apologies for jumping on your patch, but when I read the context of your change, I couldn't resist fixing some things around it too.
