Barry Warsaw 17c8e781c0 libqueue.tex: Documentation for the Queue.py module.

Fred Drake 9e63faaa66 Change Python-as-executable-script example to use "#! /usr/bin/env python"

"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.
