Hi,

Isn't it a good idea to prefer non-gender specific pronoun (like "their" instead of "his") at following places in the reference manual?

> leaving the user in a non-writable directory other than his home directory after login, [1]

> his home directory. The name of this file is taken from the value of the shell variable [2]

Cheers,
Vipul
