This obviously needs a direct pipe into Svgbob!

There is another, related class of tools, and that is graphical editors of the Unicode box-drawing characters:

https://github.com/lewish/asciiflow

https://github.com/tbanel/uniline/

Or, less ergonomically, the general rectangle-editing commands built into more powerful code editors e.g. Emacs.

With these, simple but fairly pretty box+line+text diagrams can be inlined with your source code comments. This unification may help in the perennial struggle to keep software architecture and source code reality in sync.

https://d2lang.com/ is really nice.

Also I used to use https://swimlanes.io/ before d2.

Needs to have a '+' and the elbows and T intersections.
