Hi,

Is there some script or module that would allow me to produce a flow chart like visual representation of perl code? Maybe even at a high level?

The reason why I ask is that for me to really understand something I end up drawing out the relationships as well as the basic flow of a script. I know this can be done quite easily with database schemas, so I'm pretty certain someone has atleast created a partially working 'visualizer' for perl code.

I'm in NYC for work and my brain shut off about an hour ago so I'm not finding squat on it. personally, I think it is just hiding on me ;)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
