    _______________________________________________________

Details:

The use of single quotes in this man page is frequently erroneous. My fixes
fall into the following categories:

1. Use ` instead of ' at the start of quoted text.

2. Use \(aq instead of ' or \' in commands to get a literal straight quote.

3. Use ` and ' instead of `` and '' (for consistency).

I attach a unified diff against find(1) as shipped with 4.2.28.
