NAME

   dotty - A Customizable Graph Editor

SYNOPSIS

   dotty [ -V ] [ -lmmode ] [ -ellev ] [ file ]

DESCRIPTION

   dotty  is  a  graph editor for the X Window System.  It may be run as a
   standalone editor, or as a front end for applications that use  graphs.
   It can control multiple windows viewing different graphs.

   dotty  is  written on top of dot and lefty.  lefty is a general-purpose
   programmable editor for technical pictures.   It  has  an  interpretive
   programming  language  similar  to  AWK  and C.  The user interface and
   graph editing operations of  dotty  are  written  as  lefty  functions.
   Programmer-defined  graph  operations  may  be  loaded  as well.  Graph
   layouts are made  by  dot,  which  runs  as  a  separate  process  that
   communicates with lefty through pipes.

   If  the  input  graph  contains xdot attributes, dotty will use that to
   display the graph. Otherwise, it runs dot to obtain layout information.

USAGE

   The file name is optional. If present, the graph contained in that file
   is displayed in the dotty window.

OPTIONS

   -V     Prints the version.

   -lmmode
          Sets the layout mode. The mode can be sync or async. The default
          is async.

   -ellev Sets the mesage level. The lev can be 0 or 1. The default is 0.

BUGS

   The lefty parser does not accept anonymous graphs.
