+Environment modules
+===================
+
+The user's environment, and which programs are available for immediate use, is
+controlled by the ``module`` command. Many development libraries are dependant
+on a particular compiler versions, and at times a specific MPI library. When
+loading and/or unloading a compiler, ``module`` automatically unloads
+incompatible modules and, if possible, reloads compatible versions.
+
+Currently, not all libraries in all combinations of all compilers and MPI
+implementations are supported. By using the default compiler and MPI library,
+these problems can be avoided. In the future, we aim to automate the process so
+that all possible (valid) permutations are allowed.
