Edits to info file

I took a few minutes to go through the info file correcting spelling
errors. Then I made a patch file. (I'm more of an editor than a
programmer, so it's the way I think I can best help.) I hope this can be
of some help. Could somebody with access apply it to the file on the git
repository?

I did.  Thanks a lot for the careful proof-reading.
