Take a look at the Links page on the Dia homepage http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/, there's a number of tools that generate Dia diagrams from all manner of things. Particularly interesting is probably SchemeMania http://www.schemamania.org/, which while it's not itself ready to use, has a bunch more links and ideas for similar projects. -Lars _______________________________________________ Dia-list mailing list Dia-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list FAQ at http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/faq.html Main page at http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia
