[Bug 585380] [NEW] Superfluous comma before "and" on p.34

 

Public bug reported:

Rev. 788
Ch. 2, § "Workspaces", p. 34 (PDF p. 36)
Type: grammar

Manual has:
In this case you can still change between workspaces by moving the mouse over the workspace switcher, and scrolling the mouse wheel.

Moving the mouse over the workspace switcher and scrolling the mouse
comprise a single action, not a list of options, so there shouldn't be a
comma separating them, although one after "in this case" wouldn't hurt:

In this case, you can still change between workspaces by moving the
mouse over the workspace switcher and scrolling the mouse wheel.
