The graph visualization tools from AT&T/Bell Laboratories are now available
in the outland locker for Linux, NetBSD, Solaris and Irix. These tools
allow you to generate directed and undirected graphs interactively and
non-interactively. These can be extremely useful for drawing module
dependency diagrams for classes like 6.170 and 6.035.
To run:
add outland
dot # batch program for drawing directed graphs as hierarchies
neato # batch program for drawing undirected graphs using
# Kamada-Kawai spring models
dotty # customizable X windows directed graph viewer/editor
lneato # customizable X windows undirected graph viewer/editor
You really should read the documentation before using these tools.
man pages are installed for these programs, and extensive documentation
can be found in /mit/outland/doc/graphviz.
Enjoy!
