 - Compiling GF with this runtime will require flag `--extra-lib-dirs=/usr/local/lib`.
 - Running GF with this runtime will require environment variable `LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib`

 ## Uninstalling
 
 To remove the _old_ C runtime from your system, do:

 The exposed modules are:
 
 - `PGF2`: a user API similar to Python and Java APIs
-- `PGF2.Internal`: an internal module with FFI definitions for the relevant C functions
+- `PGF2.Transactions`: an interface for modifying an existing grammar at runtime
 
 ## How to compile
 
 **Important:** You must have the C runtime already installed and available on your system.
 See <https://github.com/GrammaticalFramework/gf-core/blob/master/src/runtime/c/INSTALL>
