overquoting on Find Info page

User-agent: Gnus/5.09 (Gnus v5.9.0) Emacs/21.2

In the Find Info pages:

     For example, to skip the directory `src/emacs' and all files and
     directories under it, and print the names of the other files found:

          find . -path './src/emacs' -prune -o -print

Those ' 's are unnecessary in the last line and will cause users to
get the wrong impression about quotes.  Anyways, K&R wouldn't write
that.

Please scan the rest of the docs for overquoting.
