Abstract

GUItar is a GPL-licensed, cross-platform, graphical user interface for automata drawing and manipulation, written in C++ and Qt5. This tool offers support for styling, automatic layouts, several format exports and interface with any foreign finite automata manipulation library that can parse the serialized XML or JSON produced. In this paper we describe a new redesign of the GUItar framework and specially the method used to interface GUItar with automata manipulation libraries.
