Proofreading the docs

Hi all,

between an upstream translation and the other, I started to proofread a
little ubuntu docs...

This is what I found and a couple of suggestions...

* about-ubuntu.xml: there's a comma before a double quotes (corrected in
the patch)

* add-applications.xml: converted an emphasis tag into a guilabel tag
another one into a guibutton tag and added a guilabel one (in the
patch). In this document, in the "Advanced package management" section
of "Synaptic Package Manager" there's a "To launch Synaptic, from the
System menu choose System ->...", shouldn't it be only "To launch
Synaptci, choose System ->..."?
Always in this file, there are a lot of emphasis tags for replaceable
text... why not use the replaceable tag? And for the filename extension,
is it possible to use the <filename class="extension"> tag instead of
emphasis? (if it's ok, I'll fix it...)

* desktop-effects.xml: "Advanced Configuration", why not cite
"CompizConfig Settings Manager" rather than using gconf-editor?

That's all... for now! :)

Bye!
