'ps' is not a word - rather, it is a utility with its own manual page.
As every other utility referenced in the file has it, append the
relevant manual section that ps(1) can be found in.
While here, also wordsmith a sentence to avoid awkward phrasing, and fix
a typo.

The RCS IDs have been retired as of the move to git, so on 14-CURRENT
and 13.0-STABLE this fortune returns the following.
This fortune brought to you by:
$FreeBSD$
While faintly amusing the first time, this might just cause confusion
for folks, and in addition it's not the most useful of tips, so doesn't
add much.
Therefore it seems prudent to get rid of it.
MFC: Not to 11-STABLE or 12-STABLE.
Literal references to /usr/local exist in a large number of files in
the FreeBSD base system. Many are in contributed software, in configuration
files, or in the documentation, but 19 uses have been identified in C
source files or headers outside the contrib and sys/contrib directories.
This commit makes it possible to set _PATH_LOCALBASE in paths.h to use
a different prefix for locally installed software.
In order to avoid changes to openssh source files, LOCALBASE is passed to
the build via Makefiles under src/secure. While _PATH_LOCALBASE could have
been used here, there is precedent in the construction of the path used to
a xauth program which depends on the LOCALBASE value passed on the compiler
command line to select a non-default directory.
This could be changed in a later commit to make the openssh build
consistently use _PATH_LOCALBASE. It is considered out-of-scope for this
commit.

- Use "in" instead of "on" when referring to directory and UFS partition.
- Switch from hw.physmem to hw.realmem and add a description to
distinguish the two.
- Explain why the "df" command is having trouble displaying ZFS sizes
correctly. Add a bit more descriptive text to help why the output of
"zfs list -o space" should be used.
- Switch to vmstat instead of iostat display for systat(1) as it shows
more information on one screen. Describe what is displayed based on the
text of the man page. Change the list of the other values accordingly.
- Sort the flags to "zfs destroy" alphabetically.

Add a bunch of examples on how to use ZFS features like:
- listing available space,
- setting and displaying a userquota,
- displaying pool I/O statistics and pool history,
- displaying the compression ratio for a dataset,
- various list options (sorting, removing headers),
- performing a dry-run of a snapshot delete,
- removing a range of snapshots,
- setting a custom property,
- preventing removal of a snapshot with ZFS holds,
- permission sets for zfs send/receive.
Additionally, clarify the existing examples a bit when
it comes to displaying space by mentioning UFS explicitly.
Other examples include displaying I/O in top(1), querying
sysctl(8) for active CPUs and available RAM. Mention systat(1)
and its options, too.
While here, reformat the example to upload a dmesg(8) a bit
to wrap properly.
Thanks to Allan Jude for his help with some of the ZFS examples.

NYCBUG database.
We want to encourage our users to upload their dmesgs so that the project can
get a better insight into what kind of hardware is run on. This helps in making
data-driven decisions about i.e., platform and driver support.
Note that dmesgs may contain sensitive information like hardware serial numbers,
hence uploading them without review is discouraged.

Humour is a funny thing. What is funny to one person is not funny to all
people. What is insightful to one person is similarly not universal. The
fortune datfiles have been around a long time and have undoubtedly amused
people but it's time to acknowledge their subjective, and in some cases
at least potentially offensive, nature and stop distributing them with the
imprimatur of the FreeBSD project.
If anyone wishes to distribute these via other mechanisms they are welcome to
check them out of history and do so.

- Use OBJTOP/SRCTOP-relative paths when looking for include files and
strfile.
- Add FORTUNES_OBJ and FORTUNES_SRC to abbreviate usr.bin/fortune
pathing.
This is being done to simplify make output/idioms.

In most cases strfile is built as part of build-tools, but in the event that someone
cd'ed to the directory, tried to build from scratch, and had MK_GAMES=no previously,
the build would fail in .../datfiles , trying to find strfile .
Mark this directory tree "SUBDIR_PARALLEL" safe to help facilitate this, instead of
shuffling around the SUBDIR entries (all of the other Makefiles will build standalone).

when fortune and other games moved from /usr/games to /usr/bin; I am
removing rather than correcting it since we normally do not mention in
