[Coco] Rainbow Digitization: Year one done

[Frank Swygert]

I would suggest that errors be corrected but placed in square brackets beside or below the original. Something like this:

10 GOTO 23
 [10 GOTO 20]

or 

Dr. Marty Godman [Goodman] wrote this program...

I suggest square brackets because they are rarely used for anything else. This would preserve the original text yet allow someone to still find an error, especially in a typed in listing. Wouldn't have to look in 2-3 later issues to find a correction in a listing either.

My mindset on these types of things: Only if it improved searchability.

So if a person's name (or product) is mispelled I would correct that.
Otherwise I'm not as concerened.
