NAME

6       graphml2gv - GRAPHML-DOT converter
7

SYNOPSIS

9       graphml2gv [ -?v ] [ -ggname ] [ -ooutfile ] [ files ]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       graphml2gv  converts a graph specified in the GRAPHML format to a graph
13       in the GV (formerly DOT) format.
14

OPTIONS

16       The following options are supported:
17
18       -v     Turns on verbose mode
19
20       -?     Prints usage information and exits.
21
22       -ggname
23              The string gname is used as the name of the generated graph.  If
24              multiple  graphs  are  generated, subsequent graphs use the name
25              gname appended with an integer.
26
27       -ooutfile
28              Prints output to the file outfile. If not given, graphml2gv uses
29              stdout.
30
31
32       OPERANDS
33              The following operand is supported:
34
35       files   Names  of  files containing 1 or more graphs in GRAPHML.  If no
36               files operand is specified, the standard input will be used.
37

RETURN CODES

39       Return 0 if there were no problems during conversion; and  non-zero  if
40       any error occurred.
41

LIMITATIONS

43       As  both  the  graph  and graphics models of GV and GML differ signifi‐
44       cantly, the conversion can only be at best approximate.  In particular,
45       GV currently has no notion of hyperedges or edges containing graphs.
46
47       At present, graphml2gv only supports the basic graph topology. Specifi‐
48       cally, the <KEY> and <DATA> elements are not handled, though they could
49       be.
