Also:


    - The Stepper supports the Intermediate Student language
          and has an improved user interface
    - run-time errors are significantly improved


Other improvements in the v102 PLT software suite:


    - MysterX supports Scheme syntax for HTML element styles
    - MysterX windows are Scheme-scriptable Web browsers
    - *new* MzCOM makes the MzScheme evaluator available to any
          COM client


DrScheme and MzScheme v102 binaries and sources are available
in Linux RPM format for x86 and PowerPC.


As usual, there are many minor changes and bug fixes. Details
are provided in the release notes. See plt/notes/drscheme/HISTORY

Enjoy!
