What are the free options for creating use case diagrams under Windows? I need some simple use case diagrams for a school project.
Why install anything when you can use free online tools such as
http://creately.com/
http://yuml.me/
http://www.gliffy.com/uses/uml-software/
There are multiple options, but not yet mentioned are:
Cacoo - web tool for creating various diagrams,
Dia - standalone toolf for creating diagrams, with Win32 version also available in downloads,
When I remember right, there is a community edition of Magic Draw (the leading app?): https://www.magicdraw.com/
I already used Poseidon (Community) and ArgoUML, both not really convenient.
Recently I found a great tool called yEd: http://www.yworks.com/de/products_yed_about.htm This can be run via web start. Not really UML but use cases are perfect with yEd.
Apparently there is already something in Eclipse: http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/mdt/?project=uml2 I did use it to test. Not yet convincing usability.

Edit!
Don't miss the stackoverflow search top right of this page.
There's a pretty nice tool called UML Pad.

I am looking for free online (flash, silverlight, or javascript - simply "browser-based") tool for creating UML diagrams & ER diagrams. In the past, there was great tools like cacoo.com, creately.com, gliffy.com, or lucidchart.com. But now, they are all paid or limited for free users.
So, is there any free online tools, which can do that?
Thank you for your tips.
GenMyModel seems to match: UML tool. It is an online modeler in the cloud. It does more than drawing as you get models conforming the UML metamodel. It's free and online. Presently for class diagrams and use case diagrams.
EverGraph is free for use and despite being notation agnostic can handle program structure / architecture visualization: http://evergraph.io

I am looking for a basic business process (a ordering service or something similar) modeled using UML and/or BPMN for learning purposes. Are there any examples I can get my hand on?
You can find some examples here:
BPMN examples: https://repository.genmymodel.com/diagrams/bpmn
UML examples: https://repository.genmymodel.com/diagrams/uml
Select a project and click the green button to clone an example.
You can find some examples on the main bpmn web site: www.bpmn.org;
you can click on the tab "examples" and you will find some BPMN model examples.
I also suggest downloading BonitaStudio, where you can find some examples and you can run them.
You may try downloading Bonita Open Solution from Bonitasoft's site. The tool comes with a set of Business Processes provided as example like a hiring process. You'll also have the possibility to find some processes on BOS community.
Check here: http://www.bonitasoft.com/products/BPM_downloads
(Disclaimer: I work at Bonitasoft.)
Maybe other vendors/tools/community provide some examples.

I need to get diffs of ArgoUML diagrams. Are there any tools that provide Diffing capabilities to do UML?
I constantly make updates to my UML in SVN but I do not have a way to compare different versions.
I have seen UML-like Diff Tool from IntelliJ exists. But are there any other tools that don't require me to use IntelliJ?
Using EMF in Eclipse you can compare two UML diagrams.
http://wiki.eclipse.org/EMF_Compare/UML_Compare
So, you need to convert your ArgoUML to EMF standard by using the following framework.
http://argo2ecore.sourceforge.net/
Maybe some of these version control tools for models can help. They are not UML-specific but as the EMF-Compare tool mentioned before, they work with generic EMF models.
The EMF compare project does not work well. What you get is not really usable.
What I do in my project is to save my model and my diagrams on SVN. I then just look at svn to see modifications. You can not really see the dif insode a graph but it is usually easy to find out what has been modified because the model is composed by Name of the model > Packages > classifiers. The root can therefore be traced and the modified element find out quickly.

I've always wanted to know how CL GUIs like top or nano or vi are constructed? I have a need to actually make one and am looking for a guide or tutorial on the general idea behind them.
Here is a bunch of them.
Also there is a list.
CDK
Dialog
ncurses
Newt, a widget-based toolkit
PDCurses
SMG$
Turbo Vision
You could start by reading about ncurses, it’s a very well-known library to draw on the terminal
Check out TWIN (apparently, inspired by Turbo Vision) by Massimiliano Ghilardi. More screenshots are available here. Be sure to use the GitHub version, as SourceForge repository has been unmaintained since 2002.
If you don't mind your GUI running in a JVM, take a look at Lanterna (Java and Clojure bindings).
I've also seen a post about Turbo Vision "ported" to (or rather rewritten using) C# and XAML, but haven't had a chance to examine it.

I'm designing a system and I'll use UML as Modeling, I would like that you talk about some Tools that support Diagrams UML, I Know Visual Paradigm, but unfortunately it isn't a free software, I need a good tool compatible with Linux.
If you have no java code generation and only need an UML graphical free tool then Papyrus or Topcased is what you need. These are Eclipse plugins and are really good at graphical level because they use the GMF framework.
UMLet is also a good choice because really easy to use.
yEd Graph Editor is pretty neat and free:

Download:
http://www.yworks.com/en/products_yed_download.html
Probably this may help:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unified_Modeling_Language_tools
Try boUML , and it is free
boUML
If you are starting from scratch and do not require reverse engineering, i would recommend Violet UML or Visual Paradigm Both have helped me greatly when modelling. Btw there is a free community version of Visual Paradigm
