TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
What level of complexity, what kind of flowcharts, what is the input, what
is the output? Your questions is like saying what's the best tool for text
documents.
The easy answer, and probably the right answer for 75% of your needs, is
Visio. However, there are alternatives depending on specializations.
I was at one gig where the flowcharting got so complex and interactive that
they were considering CASE tools.
Another, where they used the Rational suite of applications.
