Flowcharting

Will anybody "recommend", from experience, flowcharting software, that's free, or atleast useful?
I could draw the flowchart with paintbrush, but eh, you can figure out the rest. :p

(this == Useful && this != Free)
Microsoft Visio

Yeah, we have Visio at school, I'll have to look into the possibility of getting a copy as a course supliment.

I was just chancing the fact of, "you never know with the internet".

there probably are many other things that can do it; I've only used Visio

Visio is real good. You can also use MS Word with the drawing toolbar.

Linux supplies dia, which supports UML drawing.

I'm afraid I use Visio as well.

>>> The ultimate is rational rose, but it is not free:

Do you use that Dean? We were going to use it, (indeed a few of us went on courses - not me), but it was rejected in favour of something else as being to expensive for what it was, and that it's UML implementation had been bent quite a bit to fit their "RUP" process.

I like the Rational Unified Process, but as far as UML goes, I don't see a need to pay a lot of money for the tools. I'd rather write my own code. I used an older version of Rational Rose, it was nice, but I'd rather just use 'dia' or even hand drawings rather than pay all the money that they are asking.

I think I'll stick to Visio. It's fast and easy.

(the reason I asked was for a temporary fix as I haven't checked out the software yet)
