Change Python-as-executable-script example to use "#! /usr/bin/env python"
...
since that's now the recommended way to do it.
In pickling discussion, change "code{pickle}" (not missing leading "\") to
"This" since the immediately preceeding sentence ended with the same text
(with the proper "\"). Fixes a formatting bug and an odd glitch in the
writing.

Changed description of SchedParams() in the following way:
...
\bar{Besocial} --> \var{besocial}
^--- note case ----^
The fixed version matches the signature. Changed "\bar{Besocial} gives ..."
to "The \var{besocial} flag gives ..." to keep from starting the sentence
with a lowercase token.
(The \bar{} --> \var{} change was required to keep LaTeX happy.)
