Summary

This patch fixes three misspellings, in the Wine handbook, that would lead an impatient reader to believe that the Wine port cannot be found within the tree.

How to reproduce:

  1. Go to section 13.3.1. in the Wine book.
  2. Try to navigate to the referenced port folder (read: /usr/ports/emulator/wine-gecko) as dictated by the handbook.
  3. Notice the folder does not exist.

How to fix:

  1. Apply patch.
  2. Navigate to the referenced port folder now dictated by the handbook: /usr/ports/emulators/wine-gecko
  3. Notice the folder does exist.

@carlavilla this seems to be a problem spread across multiple handbook languages. I did not scrub through them all, but I am sure there are more instances of this issue.

Don't worry about this. The different translation teams will fix it.
Thanks for the patch!
