About:
Greybeard is a command-line tool designed to generate ASCII art diagrams from text-based flowchart definitions. It allows developers to quickly visualize complex logic, state machines, or system architectures directly in the terminal without needing graphical tools.

Key Features:

Converts text definitions into ASCII diagrams
Supports various diagram types including flowcharts and state diagrams
Lightweight and runs entirely in the terminal
Simple, human-readable syntax for defining nodes and edges

Use Cases:

Visualizing shell script logic or complex pipelines
Documenting system architecture in plain text files
Creating quick diagrams during pair programming or debugging sessions

Alternatives:

ditaa – ditaa renders diagrams from ASCII art, whereas Greybeard generates ASCII art from text definitions
graphviz – Graphviz is a more powerful, feature-rich graph visualization suite, while Greybeard is a simpler, terminal-focused tool
