diff Doc/lib/libcurses.tex @ 13625:fdfd1049f36e legacy-trunk

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.
