Graph / Chart in Vim or Eclipse

Question

I remember there a graphical / graphical tool / plugin in some editor (possibly in vim or eclipse), so that we can build a graph in its pure form as follows:

  + ----------- + + ----------- +
   |  Class A |  ------------> |  Class B |
   + ----------- + + ----------- +

Does anyone know what this plugin is? Thanks!

Answer 1

Probably the most functional plugin for simple ASCII drawing (straight lines, arrows, ellipses, rectangles, etc.) in Vim DrawIt! Another option (may be outdated) might be sketch.vim . Both provide shortcuts for drawing at least arrows and rectangles.

Answer 2

You can find it on vim.org: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script_search_results.php?keywords=ascii&script_type=&order_by=rating&direction=descending&search=search

Most popular results:

• DrawIt!
• Chartab
• boxdraw

Answer 3

Perhaps you were thinking about asciio , which is not part of any editor - it is the editor itself that allows you to create ASCII diagrams from a small graphical interface. Here are some of them: one , two , three .

On the other hand of the problem, you may be interested in ditaa , which takes ASCII diagrams (including some of the same things that asciio produces) and turns them into beautiful graphical diagrams.

Perhaps you mean Artist mode in emacs: http://www.cinsk.org/emacs/emacs-artist.html
