Is this supposed to run on an FPGA?
So who can translate it into postage stamp sized code e.g. using boolean arrays instead?
No, it is not for FPGA. Actually author wants to create simple 4-bit shift register with decoder and would like to keep "low-level" logic where one wire according to single bit. I was just impressed how accurate all wires placed and arranged on the BD.
As next step probably he will trty to recreate whole Intel 4004 processor as pure Block Diagram:
Oh please tell me someone has tried the block diagram clean up? There is a limit to how big a BD can be it might choke and die on it as it blows up the size attempting to cleanup.

I just tried the block diagram cleanup in LabVIEW 2011 SP1.
Kudos to whoever coded the block diagram cleanup feature, it completed in about half a second and wasn't too big.
I wouldn't describe the result as beautiful, but you can't expect an algorithm to compete with an artist.

There's only 44 zeros there. It could be worse.
It is worse... I count 46 zeros (if you include the dbl at the init-array and the one on the select), there's probably another one just outside the image region on the other select primative at the far left.

Yep I missed 2. Good catch.
