> I think "integer" is meant instead of "integral".

Eg C99 uses "integral" as an adjective meaning "of integers", per 1 b (1) from 
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/integral.  My googling suggests that 
the OP's right, though, that the patched would be more widely understood.

    _______________________________________________________

Details:

One error message says "option requires a positive integral argument", where I
think "integer" is meant instead of "integral".

Attached patch fixes that, decapitalizes another message, removes an
inconsistent period from a third one, and adds two clarifying words to a
fourth.
