[CSCI2194] another UML tool

[Berna Massingill]

You may have noticed (as I did) that the senior group in CSCI 3194
included in their presentation some nice-looking UML diagrams.

They tell me that what they used to draw them is Poseidon for UML,
Community Edition.  As best I can tell, this software is free for
non-commercial use (at least for a while -- I think the evaluation
license expires after a couple of months).  I've installed a copy in
/users/cs2194 on Sol, and you should be able to try it out on any of
the Linux lab machines by typing

  /users/cs2194/bin/Poseidon_For_UML

Installed this way, it's not very fast, but other than that it seems to
work a bit better than EclipseUML, in that the diagrams you draw can be
saved in PNG format (and others?), and appear to get saved correctly.

If this seems promising, you could consider downloading a copy for your
own machine from

Hope this helps!  Comments on how this works for you would be welcome.
