Flow chart software recommendations

I looking for some software to do flow charts, state machine diagrams and
the like for a hobby project.  Needs to run on windows and be cheap or free.

Initially I need it for state machine diagram layout.  I'm expecting it will
grow in time as I add more things and it will require revision along the
way.  I'm looking for something easy to use rather than all powerful and
complicated.

Any suggestions where I might look or experience you can share?

Thanks,

Gordon Williams

I second Dia. For the price it is a pretty good piece of software!

I'd like to mention GraphViz - it does a moderately good job of rendering a
graph/flow chart based on a text-file description of relationships between
each node/element.

I am crazy about a package called WizFlow. Much better than Visio (or, it is
like Visio USED TO BE before $MS bought it). About 60 $USD, but worth it.

I've had good luck with Micrografx FlowCharter. I don't recall the
price but I don't think it was very expensive.

Thanks,

Right now I'm looking at Dia as  suggested.  I think that it has everything
that I need.

It is like a time machine.  I asked the question a month ago and got answers
today!

Regards,

Gordon Williams

I use the following, reasonably priced and very flexible...

EDraw Max (http://www.edrawsoft.com/)

Ideal to create flowcharts, network diagrams, organizational chart and
more (Only $79.95).
