+SHORT: makes flowcharts for the LaTeX picture environment
+
+Flow 0.99g 2004-2-18
+
+Summary : flow reads a simple flow chart description file and produces the
+ corresponding LaTeX picture environment
+
+Files in flow099g.tar.gz
+
+ flow.c - plain C code, should be portable
+ flowdoc.tex - documentation in LaTeX
+ README - this file
+ COPYING - GNU GPL license
+
+Note:
+
+flow.c uses tmpnam instead of mkstemp, gcc says this is bad, but I'm
+not sure what the portability implications are when using mkstemp
+
+flowdoc.tex is old style 2.09 LaTeX, but being vanilla LaTeX is works
+fine in compatibility mode
+
+Revision history
+
