Hi,

Does anyone know where I could get a visual FSM (finite state machine) simulator, if one exists? I'm pondering about making some sort of compiler using one but I want to plan it out first.

Thanks

Hmm... maybe there are some. When I explained regular expressions to co-workers and my idea of how to create a file parser, I used this to show them. It is not exactly what you want, but might help.

We used AAAAA as part of a uni course and it was great. It can do much more than just FSM though, but it is excellent with FSM´s. It´s lots and lots of fun! (i like automata theory as you might notice )
[append] It´s non-Windows though, but you have the source-code if you would like to try and port it.
