A TikZ library for drawing signal flow block diagrams

signalflow

A TikZ library by Karlheinz Ochs used to draw signal flow diagrams as seen in Example: Signal flow building blocks

This repository is an attempt to fix problems with \matrix as illustrated here: signalflowdiagram does not draw anything with \matrix.
