MSc and my project was to create an Euler/Spider~Diagram~\cite{howse:spider} editor in Java.
This editor allowed the user to draw Euler/Spider diagrams, and could then
represent these as abstract---i.e. mathematical---definitions.
%
The primary motive for writing the Spider diagram editor was to provide an alternative
to formal languages for software specification.

An added attraction for using spider diagrams was that they could be used in
proving logic~\cite{stapleton:atpieds} and theorems~\cite{theoremflower,Fish200553} in an intuitive way.
