This category contains Development Tools such as editors, compilers, debuggers, etc., as well as other tools such as visualization software. In many cases there is no need to do a separate set-up for this software, as it is usually installed in systems directories. If a set-up is required, it is usually done with the usepackage facility, i.e. through the use command.
