I need to install the Command Line Tools, in order to be able to compile Node C++ stuff.

Using xcode-select

Trying to use

xcode-select --install

Yields

Looking in Xcode's Preferences, Downloads

Trying to access the Downloads panel in Xcode

Version 5.0.2 (5A3005)

Yields

(no option to install Command Line Tools)

How the hell do I install these tools? Installing them by hand didn't help either

Two possible paths.

1)

Use the "Locations" pane in Xcode Preferences. You're looking for something like this:

Command Line Tools Path in Xcode

2)

You can download the tools from Apple's website, where it's sitting:

Download the tools from Apple's website

Interestingly enough, the description for the Command Line tools lists a date, but not a compatible Xcode version. So the one I've opened up the disclosure triangle for is likely to be the one you want.
