Fix up a few style nits -- avoid "e.g." and "i.e." -- these make
...
translation more difficult, as well as reading the English more
difficult for non-native speakers.

Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes for the Library Reference. I hope
...
SourceForge doesn't choke on this batch :-)
I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an
\index{persistency} to \index{presistence}, and I don't know what \index{}
does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a
problem.

SIGTERM is no longer caught to call sys.exitfunc.
...
This change was made long ago but the documentation was never updated.

Added an example that uses signal.alarm() to time out an os.open() that
...
takes too long. This example relies on the fact that raising an
exception in a signal handler causes the exception to be re-raised
when the main line of the program resumes execution. Is this guaranteed
in CPython, or is this something that just happens to work by accident?
Also fixed a typo.

Change "\," to just "," in function signatures. This is easier to maintain,
...
works better with LaTeX2HTML, and allows some simplification of the python.sty
macros.

Remove all \bcode / \ecode cruft; this is no longer needed. See previous
...
checkin of myformat.sty.
Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}"
everywhere.
Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.
