searching for software that makes flow chart
 
hi ,
I want to make a map in which the a node can be expanded to see hard words & when I mouse over them I should be able to see exact meaning .
For example

emotion on clicking shows sad , happy etc.
sad will open up to show dejected , morose , morbid etc.
& mousing over leaf node i.e dejected will show unhappy & disappointed.

A very large number of free s/w can do that.
I would use GNU/R (but that will involve some coding).

ROCs is a wysiwg + scripting tool

your best bets would either be Libre office or Openoffice writer, google search how to make flowcharts with it (should be easy to find)

As mentioned in my first post I was looking for software that allows one to make a GUI tree with leaf nodes showing details on hovering (like alt tag of html image).

Maybe the title of post was slightly misleading .

Finally I found an html file which can be edited easily & cross compatible on all operating system.
Here it is
Code:
