>Description:
	While I was translating the Unix Basics section of the
	Handbook, I've found a typo in the Permissions section
	of this chapter. Well, there's a following sentence:

	"These file flags add an additional level of control over
	files, helping to ensure that in some cases not even the
	root can remove or files."

	Notice the word "or" at the end of this sentece. This
	does not really make sence and it seems like somebody
	forgot to add some word, or added one extra word.
	
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:

	Since there are to possibilities how this typo was created,
	I found two ways how to fix this. Here are the diffs:
