Beside ivtt and bitrans, which I use intensively, I have created a large set of tools written in fortran.
While at work I used fortran-95, now I am back to fortran-77 which essentially means I am not doing S/W development, but good old hacking.
I use Excel only for tabular graphics, and most other graphics are again done using home-brewed fortran tools.
These read and write BMP files. While these files are bulky, the interface is completely straightforward.
I just recently started using mysql, but find it cumbersome, and what I though should be easy: fill a database with ready made CSV files, so far has been prohibitively complicated.
(I do remember from a cyber security course that mysql has a terrible reputation, and this seems to have been addressed by allowing no straightforward solution - but I am digressing).
