## Getting Scheme ##
**Scheme** is one of two major dialects of *Lisp*, which is a large family of
-programming languages. The other dialect is called "CommonLisp." Scheme is the
+programming languages. The other dialect is called "Common Lisp." Scheme is the
more clean and minimalistic dialect, and is what's mostly used in academic
circles.
Since the name change is so recent, you're likely to run across both sets of names.
-PLT/Racket stands to Scheme in something like the relation Firefox stands to HTML. It's one program among others for working with the language; and many of the available programs permit different extensions, have small variations, and so on.
+PLT/Racket stands to Scheme in something like the relation Firefox stands to HTML. It's one program among others for working with the language; and many of those programs (or web browsers) permit different extensions, have small variations, and so on.
PLT Scheme had several components. The two most visible components for us
were the command-line interpreter "mzscheme" and a teaching-friendly editor/front-end "DrScheme". In
Racket these have been renamed "racket" and "DrRacket",
respectively.
