Hum, I should have reread that part, it is outdated when it says:

Apparently, John involuntarily reverted to an older version of the  
syntax document as it wasn't like this when I translated it in French  
back in March 2005.

If anyone wants the *un*reverted version of this document, as of when  
I translated it, I kept a copy so I can diff with later versions and  
spot easily the changes.
