Some thoughts:
- the whole diff will be difficult to read for a translator: section
moves, whitespace & content changes, etc. It will be important to
commit in separate parts: for example: 1st section moves/removals, 2nd
addition & content changes and 3rd whitespace/indentation changes;
- you removed the prerequisite of knowing how to use ports, I think it's
important to know how to get a ports tree before using the ports;
- you removed the way to get a localized keyboard for people not using a
desktop manager. Well this configuration is not easy to guess for a
newcomer. Maybe it can be kept somewhere in the chapter.
- What is # in Crtl+Alt+F#?
