Hi Branden!

Without further ado, the following was found:

"The /proc/sys/user directory"

That is a subsection, which is of course bold by default. In the SS title, there's text that would be formatted if it appeared elsewhere in the page, but we don't format it in SS titles (I'm guessing for laziness of using the dreaded \f escape). Would you recommend using it? I tried it, and it shows in bold+italics, which is okay to my taste, and also increases consistency of formatting, so I'm fine with it.

Cheers,

Alex
