On page 2329 lines 73947-73947 delete:
<blockquote>(For example, ${<b>foo</b>-<b>bar</b>}<b>xyz</b>} would result
in the expansion of <b>foo</b> followed by the string <b>xyz}</b> if
<b>foo</b> is set, else the string <tt>"barxyz}"</tt>).</blockquote>
After page 2330 line 74013 add:
<blockquote>${<i>parameter</i>-<i>word</i>}<blockquote>This example
demonstrates the difference between unset and set to the empty string, as
well as the rules for finding the delimiting close brace.<pre>foo=asdf
echo ${foo-bar}xyz}
<b>asdfxyz}</b>
foo=
echo ${foo-bar}xyz}
<b>xyz}</b>
unset foo
echo ${foo-bar}xyz}
<b>barxyz}</b></pre></blockquote></blockquote>
