| [GCCcore](http://gcc.gnu.org/) | The GNU Compiler Collection includes front ends for C, C++, Objective-C, Fortran, Java, and Ada, as well as libraries for these languages (libstdc++, libgcj,...). |
| [icc](http://software.intel.com/en-us/intel-compilers/) | Intel C and C++ compilers |
| [LLVM](http://llvm.org/) | The LLVM Core libraries provide a modern source- and target-independent optimizer, along with code generation support for many popular CPUs (as well as some less common ones!) These libraries are built around a well specified code representation known as the LLVM intermediate representation ("LLVM IR"). The LLVM Core libraries are well documented, and it is particularly easy to invent your own language (or port an existing compiler) to use LLVM as an optimizer and code generator. |
| [CMake](http://www.cmake.org) | CMake, the cross-platform, open-source build system. CMake is a family of tools designed to build, test and package software. |
| [M4](http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/m4.html) | GNU M4 is an implementation of the traditional Unix macro processor. It is mostly SVR4 compatible although it has some extensions (for example, handling more than 9 positional parameters to macros). GNU M4 also has built-in functions for including files, running shell commands, doing arithmetic, etc. |
| [Mako](http://www.makotemplates.org) | A super-fast templating language that borrows the best ideas from the existing templating languages |
| [ncurses](http://www.gnu.org/software/ncurses/) | The Ncurses (new curses) library is a free software emulation of curses in System V Release 4.0, and more. It uses Terminfo format, supports pads and color and multiple highlights and forms characters and function-key mapping, and has all the other SYSV-curses enhancements over BSD Curses. |
| [PCRE](http://www.pcre.org/) | The PCRE library is a set of functions that implement regular expression pattern matching using the same syntax and semantics as Perl 5. |
| [pkg-config](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/pkg-config/) | pkg-config is a helper tool used when compiling applications and libraries. It helps you insert the correct compiler options on the command line so an application can use gcc -o test test.c `pkg-config --libs --cflags glib-2.0` for instance, rather than hard-coding values on where to find glib (or other libraries). |

Both Emacs and vi editing modes are available. The Readline library includes additional functions to maintain a list of previously-entered command lines, to recall and perhaps reedit those lines, and perform csh-like history expansion on previous commands. |
