Its nice to see other people who are bothering to understand the benefits of this rather than snarking away. I once fell into the unfortunate position of having to program proprietary building control systems made by a company called Crestron. Its terrible, overpriced shit, but at the core is a neat little Flow Base Programming tool that is based on some proprietary C derived language. What amazed me about it was how quickly we could teach people with little to no programming experience how to reuse existing functions for new projects just be altering the flow between components and editing parameters in functions. It was crazy. Naturally, every now and then custom code had to be written, but then you would just create a new function, and add it to the pile of other functions that could be wired together. I'm very interested in NoFlo, and can't wait for this tool to come out.
