From d9577965a3539521eb26ec8943749cc97ea0c4a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefano Brivio Date: Thu, 16 Feb 2023 02:00:47 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] passt.1: Fix typo, improve wording in examples of port forwarding specifiers Based on a patch from Laine, and reports from Laine and Yalan: fix the "22-80:32-90" example, and improve wording for the other ones: instead of using "to" to denote the end of a range, use "between ... and", so that it's clear we're *not* referring to target ports.
