Summary 0001311: j command incorrectly referred to in ed's rationale section
Description In the rationale section on ed's page ( https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/ed.html [^] ) we see:
On BSD, the join command with only a single address changes the current line to that address.

In the HTML:
On BSD, the [a href="../utilities/join.html"]join[/a] command with only a single address changes the current line to that address.

This link to the join utility is incorrect. ed's j command is intended.

(unrelatedly, it's odd that [p] is being used within [li] when LI elements already accept text content in HTML)

(Use of '[' instead of '<' in the above is to stop Mantis interpreting as HTML)
Desired Action The text should be changed as follows:
On BSD, the j command with only a single address changes the current line to that address.

The HTML should be changed as follows:
On BSD, the [b]j[/b] command with only a single address changes the current line to that address.

(Use of '[' instead of '<' in the above is to stop Mantis interpreting as HTML)

 The defect tracker swallowed up the HTML (which I didn't intend to have rendered) and I can't figure out how to edit the issue.

 Mantis understands a subset of HTML tags, so when you want them to show as plain text you need to add a SPC or '_' after the '<' opening each tag. Except for the last part what's there now is understandable anyways.

 I have fixed the HTML problem in description and desired action by changing '<' to '['.

 Applied to the troff source. The change will come through into the HTML version next time a new PDF is published. (For now, the hyperlink has been removed so it just has the word join to match the current PDF.)
