during startup:
text: busses
error: busses
fix: buses


Busses is a correct spelling. Is there a consistency issue, or do you just prefer "buses"?

FWIW, the Wikipedia article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_%28computing%29 consistently uses 'buses' as plural.

I'll take my bikeshed black.


Peter is correct in saying that this is "a" correct spelling -- it depends on what side of the ocean you're on, as I'm pretty sure this is a US vs UK English issue.
