Announcement text given by the contribution's author: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Finomaton allows users comfortably draw and typeset finite state machines (automata). The resulting graphs can be exported to plain MetaPost and subsequently be included in TeX and LaTeX documents for excellent typesetting quality. Contrary to many other packages, the mouse can be used to interactively move objects around. States are magnetic to facilitate connection, and any TeX command can be embedded in the labels of states and lines. Detailed instruction of how to embed the pictures in your document and many examples are included in the documentation. - - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
