Looks pretty good.

"example" is misspelled as "exemple" in at least one place, and "line"
as "lign".

I'd put more white space around the example commands in section II.

There's an extra space and a missing newline in III.1.  Supply a URL
for "Cyclic Software".

The word "THE" in IV.3 should be lower-case, and move the period
before the parenthetical comment to the end of the sentence (after the
parentheses).

The phrase "revisions numbers" in IV.4 should be "revision numbers".

"compared" should be "compare" in the second full sentence of V.2.

"outpout" should be "output" in V.3.

There are probably more typos that I didn't catch (I wasn't originally
looking for them, but once I saw a few I scanned the remainder of the
file a tiny bit more closely ;-).
