You just run it with the `plantuml` command, and you have .png

It has a good integration with a lot of tools (iPython for example) :

I will look at your suggestions though.

Hi,

There is "blockdiag" which is Sphinx friendly:
http://blockdiag.com/en/blockdiag/sphinxcontrib.html

Look also at:

* http://asciiflow.com/
* http://ditaa.sourceforge.net/
* http://asciidoctor.org/news/2014/02/18/plain-text-diagrams-in-asciidoctor/
* etc.

I like ASCII Art since it doesn't require any specific tool to edit it
(even if dedicated tools like asciiflow can make editing simpler).

For example, I have no idea how to open a ".puml" file. What if the
tool for this specific format becomes outdated or is not available on
some platforms?

Graphviz with "dot" files is another option.

Victor
