MPI2 draft May 8, 1997 typos:
-----------------------------

ABSTRACT
"standard. They" --> "standards. They"
"is describes" --> "describes"

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
maybe drop Real-Time on page viii? (is not in this document)

CH.1
2:16 " and MPI-1.2" --> " and MPI-1.0" (or drop completely)
2:26, 2:39, 2:42 chapter titles do not match

CH.2
11:20 fix font of MPI_SUCCESS
15:36 fix font of MPI_INIT and MPI_FINALIZE
15:40 fix font of MPI_COMM_WORLD
15:43 don't pass void* and void*** (NULL cast to these types, if anything)
16:19 "SIG_ALARM" --> "SIG_ALRM"

CH.3
17:15 "here is" --> "in version 1.2 is"
17+ 3.1: why is a run-time method needed if a compile-time method
is already there? Changing the C #define-s to const int
would also give the correct type, so the MPI_GET_VERSION
is unnecessary (or do I miss something???)
18:1 drop "is one of the few functions that" (this is a null information)
18:3 "with this" --> "with all of this"
18:42 "MPI_Finalize" --> "MPI_FINALIZE"
19:6 add ")"
19:28 "In no" --> "If no"
19:43+ Print all procedure names in uppercase
19:46 add "()" after MPI_Iprobe (to lign up with 19:43)
20 fix font of several "MPI"
20:38 "return so" --> "returns so"
20:42 "process return" --> "process returns"
21:16 "MPI_Status" --> "MPI_STATUS"
