Dear bash hackers,

by chance I noticed that the documentation uses the pronoun "he" a couple of times to refer to the user. This patch changes these to use the English singular "they" instead, which I believe to be a very nice, elegant, simple and non-intrusive solution.

I don't want to start a war, please feel free to disregard this patch. I just had a couple of minutes to spare and thought it wouldn't harm to quickly contribute this small change to a piece of software I've been using for 15 years. :-)

Thank you for your work in maintaining and developing bash!

Cheers,
Ingo
