@KatID = 26 problems during re-install

What's the deal with KatID 26?  I'm sure it has something to do with permalinks, but I keep getting burned with not completely uninstalling a module I'm writing.  I'm modeling it after other modules, which have lines like

INSERT INTO `sys_options` (`Name`, `VALUE`, `kateg`, `desc`, `Type`, `check`, `err_text`, `order_in_kateg`, `AvailableValues`) VALUES

('modzzz_schools_permalinks', 'on', 26, 'Enable friendly permalinks in schools', 'checkbox', '', '', '0', ''),

And a corresponding uninstall like like

DELETE FROM `sys_options` WHERE `Name` = 'modzzz_schools_permalinks';

The module variables within all the tables seem complicated.  If each table had a module_id associated with it, then it'd be easy to see which table settings were associated with which module.
Can someone explain how permalinks work, and what kat 26 is?
Thanks!

1. kat 26 is - your_site.com/administration/settings.php?cat=26

2. `sys_options` this table need for store some site's settings such us: dolphin license code, Global Enabling of Couples, etc

Thanks, I understand now.

I guess the style is to put all the permalink options in the permalink settings menu, rather than in the module where you're working, though at first glance it seems like modules that have their own administration area should just have the permalinks settings there with the other module-related options.

I understand the rewrite rules, but I'm not completely clear on the purpose of the permalinks.  Is it for generating links from within the code, or consistently recognizing what page a user is on?

Thx,

Yes permalinks generated in PHP classes. If you enable permalinks mode all links will be look like:

you_site.com/m/articles/view/test-articles

if you disable some of them you link will be look like :

you_site.com/module=articles/?action=view&article_id=1
