 Emacs interprets a double slash as ``ignore everything before the
 second slash in the pair.''  In the example above,
-@samp{/u2/emacs/src/} is ignored, so the argument you supplied is
+@file{/u2/emacs/src/} is ignored, so the argument you supplied is

 the terminal allows it (to disable this dimming, turn off File Name
 Shadow mode with the command @kbd{M-x file-name-shadow-mode}.)
