This is fun :)

Here are a few threads the PLT folk had:

   http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.scheme.plt.devel/2540
   http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.scheme.plt.devel/2693/focus=2715
   http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.scheme.plt.devel/2775

They ended up going for "racket" and "raco", AFAIK.

Perl uses perl, AFAIK: like perl -M CPAN.
