[PD] Data structure array with last element pointing back to first element

[Jonathan Wilkes]

The documentation says you can specify a bezier curve with the first argument as "curve".  But you're 

right, you can also specify a curve by using the "-c" flag, which is much more logical.

I think using "curve" should be deprecated, for the obvious ambiguity that flags solve.

Miller?
