Python edu-sig, I've been thinking about a visual programming/flowchart interface for Python and was wondering if anyone knows of such a project. I am imaging a Tkinter canvas (initially) with which one can add blocks that represent statements, branches, loops... everything. Further, I imaging that this would save (and load) real Python code, so that you could suck in raw code, it would get parsed, and shown as a flowchart. Maybe some additional data would be stored in comments (zoom amount, positions/colors/properties of particular boxes). Also, one could step through the chart, block-by-block.
I've seen some commercial (and open source/non-Python) products, but they seem heavy and sluggish, as if a whole lot of processing is going on behind the scenes. Is/would it really be that hard? Any pointers or comments appreciated, -Doug -- Douglas S.
