I'm with Richard - lots of scrap paper, couple of nice sharp HB pencils ... let it ferment a bit,
then pseudocode in a plain text editor.


As for the graphics - well, I have an old template used in Introductory Basic for the Control Data Corporation <whatever>. Haven't used it since about 1970, but then keypunch machines have been scarce.

Cheers - Miles

All true.

And having read Jason's email I think I'll try to put that graphical
process into practice. Doesn't have to be in Visio considering...

Agreed.



Thanks,
