This one is a passing resemblance to a linux gizmo by the name of
rockhopper. It analyses the .hal configuration file of a linuxcnc
installation, and generates a web (http://host:8000) viewable .svg file,
useless because its images are so small for screen reading, file that is a
logic diagram of the control code for a specific cnc controlled machine.
You can save the file and posterize it to print it, tape the prints
together and get a wall poster that is readable. My little toy 7x12 lathe
is 6 landscape pages done that way. Even at 6 pages, its a "busy" diagram.

No problem is so large it can't be fit in somewhere.

dangerous than 200 million guns in the hands of
