Additional work is required on this package to make it fully compliant with the Graphviz file format. The main problem is that I only understand the subset that I use and I haven't had time to revisit this.
escargo 30 Jan 2007 - I note that this code requires struct::graph v1, and not the current version. (struct::graph v1 required Tcl 8.2; the version of struct::graph for v1 in tcllib says 1.2.1.
