command = prikaz, nikoliv program

"There is Power problems" je pitomost v anglictine, zmenit na
"There are power problems", tj. are misto is a male 'p' v slovu power.

Vlozit strednik mezi "problems" a "please".

Dvojtecka misto carky

Dvojtecka misto carky

Navrhuji rovnez ze stylistickych duvodu snizit pocet pouzitych vykricniku,
zdrzet se pouzivani ALL CAPS, jakozto i Initial Caps. Initial Caps je v
anglictine pripustne pouze v nazvech a ALL CAPS dle meho nazoru neni
pripustne vubec, i kdyz se bohuzel hojne vyskytuje. Zijeme ve zkazenem
svete.
