I've been using Dia for years. It's good.

  Thanks, Steve.

When using Dia, I'd suggest you first get your fonts right with one box,
and then copy that box elsewhere. I know of no way to globally change
fonts (other than tweaking with Dia's native XML using Vim).

  OK.

If you are ever interested in changing your drawing programatically, see this:

  The first steps will be creating UML diagrams of our approximate reasoning
model.

I typically use Dia, and then as a final step convert to .gif before
incorporation in LyX or HTML. If you find a way to use native Dia files
directly in LyX (or HTML without requiring special browser plugins),
please let us know.

  I'll probably export to .png because that's the format of the screen shots
and I might as well be consistent in the graphics formats. I view the
developing users manual using pdflatex and the .png files work perfectly in
there.
