ascii makes it ugly, why not use file and directory names? or even store nodes in a special file format?

It's actually unicode instead of ascii. It's full of special characters for boxes, and more for the function library.

But I get your point, you probably meant "fixed width text characters" instead of ascii. I'm just being pedantic :)

just use ncurses, have a gui to "add new class", etc. and a box == class.

I often thought that languages shouldn't need any OO keywords if those features are visual, ie. boxes and arrows.
