NAME

       graphml2gv - GRAPHML-DOT converter

SYNOPSIS

       graphml2gv [ -?v ] [ -ggname ] [ -ooutfile ] [ files ]

DESCRIPTION

       graphml2gv converts a graph specified in the GRAPHML format to a graph in the GV (formerly
       DOT) format.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -v     Turns on verbose mode

       -?     Prints usage information and exits.

       -ggname
              The string gname is used as the name of the generated graph.   If  multiple  graphs
              are generated, subsequent graphs use the name gname appended with an integer.

       -ooutfile
              Prints output to the file outfile. If not given, graphml2gv uses stdout.

       OPERANDS
              The following operand is supported:

       files   Names  of  files  containing  1 or more graphs in GRAPHML.  If no files operand is
               specified, the standard input will be used.

RETURN CODES

       Return 0 if there were no problems during conversion; and non-zero if any error occurred.

LIMITATIONS

       As both the graph and graphics models of GV and GML differ significantly,  the  conversion
       can  only be at best approximate.  In particular, GV currently has no notion of hyperedges
       or edges containing graphs.

       At present, graphml2gv only supports the basic graph topology. Specifically, the <KEY> and
       <DATA> elements are not handled, though they could be.
