Creating graphs the old-fashioned way with Ploticus

Fri, 28 Mar 2008 15:00:00 GMT
Ploticus is a throwback to the days when Unix programs did one thing, and did it well, using a minimum of system resources. Its SourceForge.net page hints at this orientation by describing Ploticus as "non-interactive" software for "just-in-time graph generation." How useful it is depends on what you want to do, whether you use the settings that come with the program or define your own, and your willingness to master a lengthy -- if well-documented -- set of options.

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 undi- rected graphs. Note also that neato -n[2] can be used to render layouts produced by the other filters.
