Hi gerald,
I am working along the same lines. Right now, I am trying to get an Orbit
interface to dia's main functionality, so I can write a parser--either in prolog,
or using bison/flex--to reverse engineer source code. Actually, the prolog would
be better since we are not compiling code, but trying to extract human design
intelligence from the code. I'll keep you updated.
