     <ti>Eselect modules</ti>
     <ti>Eselect is Gentoo's configuration tool for selecting versions or linguas of applications that have multiple instances that can fulfill a need. There are many applications such as tar, whois, cpio, sendmail, and countless others that are different versions/implementations of the same application. Eselect is ideal for allowing you to have multiple versions of these applications installed but having the default system version be selected via the Eselect framework. Adding more modules will allow users to have better control over their various packages.</ti>
