 In Python you can avoid these complications and make debugging much
 easier by importing the module \module{curses.wrapper}.  It supplies a
-function \function{wrapper} that takes a hook argument.  It does the
+\function{wrapper()} function that takes a callable.  It does the
 initializations described above, and also initializes colors if color

 clause which catches exceptions, performs curses deinitialization, and
 then passes the exception upwards.  Thus, your terminal won't be left
 in a funny state on exception.
