\title{Flow -- a program to generate flowcharts in the \LaTeX\
picture environment}
\author{Terry Brown}
\date{November 25, 1992 --- September 22, 2005}
\maketitle
\headB{Summary}
{\em Flow\/} is a small program which parses the flowchart description
explained in this document and translates it to the \LaTeX\ picture
environment.
Flow acts as a filter, so a typical execution would be...
\verb+flow +$<$\verb+myprog.flo +$>$\verb+myprog.pic+
..where \verb+myprog.flo+ is a plain text file containing a description of a
flowchart, and \verb+myprog.pic+ will be a plain text file containing the
body of a \LaTeX\ picture environment to draw the flowchart. Alternatively
\verb+flow inputFile + or \verb+ flow inputFile outputFile+
may be used. VMS users see notes at end.
\verb+myprog.pic+ could either be inserted into a picture environment in a
\LaTeX\ file with a text editor, or pulled in by the \verb+\input+ command as
\LaTeX\ is run.
\headB{System requirements}
Nothing in particular. Flow is in very plain C and should be portable to
pretty much anything without alteration. Check beginning of file for defines
if it gives trouble.
\headB{Distribution and Bug Reports}
Flow is free software covered by the GPL. See the file \verb+COPYING+
for details. Email to \
[email protected]+ with bug reports
etc.
\newpage
\headB{Flowchart description syntax}
\verb+[indented text]+ indicates the command accepts zero or more line of
text, these lines are identified by indentation. All lines after the command
starting with either a space or a tab are assumed to be text for that
command. The first line not starting with one of these characters is assumed
to be the next command. Distributed code / executeables are case
insensitive, but local compilations may vary.
The flowchart is always ``going'' either up, down, left or right. The
initial direction is down.
The flowchart description file is terminated either by an invalid command,
a blank line, or the end of the file. Keywords are case sensitive.
% This bit became redundant with v 0.99
%
%% The output from flow should appear inside a \LaTeX\ picture environment.
%% Use
%%
%% \pushin\verb+\begin{picture}(x,y)(0,-y)+
%%
%% to start the environment (as the flow
%% chart starts at 0,0 and normally goes down, this put the pictures origin at
%% the top left corner). 10 and 10 are ok as initial values for x and y. The
%% positioning of the picture can be adjusted with the second pair as usual for
%% the picture environment.
The output from flow will appear inside a \LaTeX\ picture environment.
The positioning of the picture can be adjusted with the second pair as usual
for the picture environment.
\verb+\unitlength+ should be set for use with the picture environment, all
the examples in this document use \verb+2em+ (ie. put
\verb+\setlength{\unitlength}{2em}+ at the top of the \LaTeX\ file).
Smaller values make the boxes tighter around the text, larger values make
them more open.
\headC{The commands}
\verb_% comment to end of line_
If the first thing on a line is a '\verb_%_' symbol the line is
treated as a comment. Thanks to Joost Bruynooghe for adding this command.
\begin{verbatim}
Box [x y]
[indented text]
\end{verbatim}
Draws a text at the current position, including a line or arrow leading to it
if appropriate. If x and y are specified, the size of the box (in
\verb+\unitlength+s), and all subsequent boxes, is set to these. The
default size of a box is 4 by 2 \verb+\unitlength+s.

\verb+SetTrack none | arrow | line+
Use arrows, lines, or nothing for drawing connections between boxes.
\verb+TxtPos P1 P2 [B [A]]+
\verb+P1+ is the \LaTeX\ position specification (eg. [c] or [l]) for the
lines of text that makes up the blocks of text in the boxes, \verb+P2+ is
the \LaTeX\ position specification for the whole block of text within the
box. \verb+B+ is the string (no white space) to be placed before each line
of text, \verb+A+ is the string to be placed after each line of text. The
example shows the use of \verb+B+ to keep text off the edge of the box.

\verb+Tag+
\verb+ToTag+
\verb+Tag+ stores the location and size of the last object drawn on a stack,
\verb+ToTag+ returns to that position (removing the item from the stack). This is
particularly useful with \verb+Choice+s, allowing a second chain to be built
from the diamond, but it can be used with any other item. Flow will complain
if it encounters more \verb+ToTag+s the \verb+Tag+s, but won't mention
\verb+Tag+s left on the stack when it finishes.

With or without the optional parameter, these command change the current
direction of the flowchart. With the optional parameter, they draw a line,
if \verb+SetTrack+ is \verb+line+ {\em or\/} \verb+arrow+, or leave a gap, if
\verb+SetTrack+ in \verb+none+. The length of the line (or gap) is $d$. By
default \verb+Box+es, \verb+Oval+s, \verb+Tilt+s and \verb+Text+s are 4 units
wide and 2 units high. A \verb+Choice+ is 4 by 4 units. The arrows that
connect things together are 1 unit. So a box drawn while the current
direction is down would occupy 2 + 1 = 3 vertical units.
To force the line to end in a arrow head, use the ``*'', which must be
separated from the ``d'' by a space.

\headB{VMS notes}
I don't know much VMS, but this is one way of getting it to work. Compile
and link as normal, then
{\tt flow :== \$\fbox{\$1\$DIA3:}[brownt1.usr.flow]flow.exe}
where the bit in the box is the name of the drive you're working on, and
\verb+[brownt1.usr.flow]+ is the appropriate path. Then use the
\verb+flow infile outfile+
form, as the redirection form doesn't seem to work.
