by Edward K. Ream <edream@users.sourceforge.net> about FILE* values and

Fix typo in a C code example: KeyError is spelled PyExc_KeyError in C; the
"K" is upper case!
Some index entries.
On function signatures, always use parameter names. Make return types match
what's in the header files. When the return type is a pointer, always omit
the space between te type name and the "*"; leaving it in results in
type * func(..)
and having two spaces there just looks terrible.
