They have. There is a shareware program available called "GAP" for
"Graphically Assisted Programming", which is based on flowcharts. It is
rather simple, though, as it has only a few commands like DO:LOOP,
FOR:NEXT, PRINT, INPUT and it has only two data types, string and
integer (might also be floating point). Runs under Windows.
