Summary description: MetaPost macros for the creation of block diagrams
and bond graphs
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
The previous version defined bond graph junction symbols using btex...etex in a package file, making it impossible to affect the LaTeX preamble used for these labels without changing the package file. The fix is not backward compatible, but adds requested flexibility. The asymmetric arrowhead on a bond can now be drawn as a simple stroke.

blockdraw_mp – Block diagrams and bond graphs, with METAPOST
A set of simple METAPOST macros for the task. While the task is not itself difficult to program, it is felt that many users will be happy to have a library for the job..
