Just last week or local Unix users group had a presentation from IDE,
whose product did that exact thing and more.

You could zoom in and out of the flow-chart, and if you added something
to the flow chart it would insert the stubs where you could put in your
new C code.

Quite impressive.   Was running on a Sun, but is available on most of
the workstations in use.   Price was in the $11k range.   University
pricing was free.
