Thinking out loud, I seem to recall Graphviz being developed to automate
function diagrams for HAL so that one could see how the HAL components
where connected for a given hal file. Graphviz, can also be seen in the
LinuxCNC documentation. Off-hand, there seems to be two different
functions, 1) to document general software functions to help developers
understand the LinuxCNC software, and 2) present hal components and pin
connections to help integrators create and troubleshoot hal components
and connections.
The bottom of this link seems to show the developer application (with
curvy lines and balloons):

Way back, I used Inkscape to manually make HAL diagrams as a reference
for editing my HAL files:

At the time, it seemed that progress on these fronts was being made to
automate these applications.
It would be good to see LinuxCNC become more active again.
Sincerely, Kirk Wallace

Yep! I need a project that will get me back into this again!
Thanks,
