NAME

graphviz - rich set of graph drawing tools

This manpage has been written to fulfil the need of a centralized docu-
mentation presenting all available tools in the graphviz package.

Graph layout programs: dot filter for hierarchical layouts of graphs; neato filter for symmetric layouts of graphs; twopi filter for radial layouts of graphs; circo filter for circular layout of graphs; fdp filter for symmetric layouts of graphs; All of the filters work with either directed or undirected graphs, though dot is typically used for directed graphs and neato for undirected graphs. Note also that neato -n[2] can be used to render layouts produced by the other filters.
Graph drawing programs: lefty A Programmable Graphics Editor; lneato lefty + neato; dotty lefty + dot
Graph layout enhancement: gvcolor
flow colors through a ranked digraph; unflatten
adjust directed graphs to improve layout aspect ratio; gvpack merge and pack disjoint graphs
Graph information and transformation: gc count graph components; acyclic
make directed graph acyclic; nop pretty-print graph file; ccomps connected components filter for graphs; sccmap extract strongly connected components of directed graphs; tred transitive reduction filter for directed graphs; dijkstra
single-source distance filter; bcomps biconnected components filter for graphs; gvpr graph pattern scanning and processing language; prune prune directed graphs
Other: gxl2dot, dot2gxl
GXL-DOT converters

This manual page was written by Cyril Brulebois <cyril.brulebois@enst-bretagne.fr> in november 2006, based on an initial documentation effort by Joachim Berdal Haga <jbh@lupus.ig3.net>. It can be distributed under the same terms as the graphviz package.
