<p>Both ,<em>feedback</em> and <em>strip-types</em> use bitsets to keep
track what they are doing. Any number in a computer is made out of
- bits that are on or off, but we represtent them as normal base 10
+ bits that are on or off, but we represent them as normal base 10
numbers. Any one bit turned on will add a unique value to the
number as a whole. So for each kind of feedback or strip type
to be used, that number should be added to the total.</p>

on a surface that has dedicated controls for these strips as there are
/master* and /monitor* commands already. However, on a surface with
