From: Lele Gaifax <lele@nautilus.eclipse.it>

Subject: Typos in ref manual
Hi all,
browsing the reference manual I noticed what seem two small errors:
a) in the list of keywords (section 2.3.1) 'exec' is missing
b) in the Operator Precedence table (5.12) the comparison operators
include '=', but probably '==' was intended.
Hope this help,
lele.
