Hi,

I'd like to ask:

Is there any tool for creating the syntax diagrams shown in the reference guide?

If yes, which one and where can I get it?

TIA,
Marc

Yes (if not, how can they have it there?)

which one and where can I get it?

AFAIK, it's all just .tex files. I'm not really sure, just download fpcbuild from the ftp. It contains source code for the documentation. Or you can use Dia (perhaps).

Interesting.

Or did you mean a graphical tool ? I've never found one, but then I never looked very hard.

I was thinking you would, yes. I didn't know that LaTeX can do graphs out of the box without the use of external tools.

Thanks,
Marc
