Kivio

Kivio

Kivio is the KOffice flowchart and diagram creation tool. It allows you to create accurate scale diagrams by arranging pre-drawn shapes and stencils on a page. The stencils might represent stages of a process, office furniture or components on an electronic circuit. Kivio comes with a large collection of different stencils which are grouped into collections, known as stencil sets, by subject area including flowcharting, electronics and computer networks. Objects are scriptable, and a backend plugin system offers the ability to make objects do just about anything.

KOffice is an integrated office suite for the KDE (K Desktop Environment) consisting of several applications including a word processor (KWord) and a spreadsheet (KSpread).
