Minor grammatical edits; use preferred nomenclature consistently.

[catseye]

This change fixes a few things in the tutorial. Aside from the obvious minor grammatical edits:

• It seems odd to list curl as a dependency and then recommend using wget to grab the tarball. Changed the command to curl -O.
• The list of basic arithmetic operations was a mix of parts of speech; they are now all imperative verbs.
• The tutorial has a section about the preferred terminology for the kinds of pointers, but subsequently occasionally uses the non-preferred terms "shared box" and "unique box"; these have been changed to "managed box" and "owned box".

Yes I saw the wget think and I forgot the fix.
