I assume the point here is that "constant omega" is too similar to
"bisector", or something like that, so "bisector and constant psi"
makes a better description of the range of options?
I'd better explicitly point out one of the things I silently fixed
above: the English spelling is "bisect(-ion,-or)" with only one S.
I also deliberately promoted the examples list out of the
parentheses.

If you say so! Okay, how about this:
For each of these it provides several numerically computed
modes, such as bisector and constant psi.

That is, a standard synopsis of

...?
Fair enough. Revised patch attached.

-Description: library for diffraction calculation and diffractometer control.
- The hkl library is dedicate to diffractometer control. It deals with different

- kappa 4 circles, kappa 6 circles and z-axis geometry. For each of thoses
- geometry it provides different kind of modes (bissector, constant omega, ...).
- It is heavily used at the SOLEIL synchrotron.
