Thanks are entended to Barbara Beeton for pointing out this package
(announced on the TEX-NL list) to me. It is very handy for including flow
charts in LaTeX documents, and (while I have no knowledge of precisely what
a Nassi-Schneidermann disgram is) generates NS diagrams using essentially
the same syntax. It is very well documented. Below is the description
file for this package.

NASSFLOW
--------
NASSFLOW is a package of 8 files which includes style options and
documentation for use to create and include either Nassi-Schneidermann
diagrams or flow charts in a LaTeX document. The package is authored by
Kees Lindhout and Marion van Geest, Center for the Automation of Weapon and
Command Systems, Royal Netherlands Navy.
Both NS-diagrams and flow charts in this context are described in macros
resembling a pseudo code. The diagram itself is defined as a structure and
is built from statements. Macros are available for all standard programming
statements (if, while, action, etc.). Support for the Language Sensitive
Editor for LaTeX, LSA, is extensible to work with these macros.
