NAME

       graphviz - rich set of graph drawing tools

SYNOPSIS

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

AVAILABLE TOOLS

   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

       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

       <jbh@lupus.ig3.net>. It can be distributed under the same terms as the graphviz package.
