NAME
       gml2gv - GML-DOT converter

SYNOPSIS
       gml2gv [ -?v ] [ -ggname ] [ -ooutfile ] [ files ]

DESCRIPTION
       gml2gv  converts	 a graph specified in the GML format to a graph in the
       GV (formerly DOT) format.

OPTIONS
       The following options are supported:

       -v     Turns on verbose mode

       -?     Prints usage information and exits.

       -ggname
	      The string gname is used as the name of the generated graph.  If
	      multiple	graphs	are  generated, subsequent graphs use the name
	      gname appended with an integer.

       -ooutfile
	      Prints output to the file outfile. If  not  given,  gml2gv  uses
	      stdout.

       OPERANDS
	      The following operand is supported:

       files   Names of files containing 1 or more graphs in GML.  If no files
	       operand is specified, the standard input will be used.

RETURN CODES
       Return 0 if there were no problems during conversion; and  non-zero  if
       any error occurred.

LIMITATIONS
       As  both	 the  graph  and graphics models of GV and GML differ signifi‐
       cantly, the conversion is at best approximate. In particular, it is not
       clear  how multiedges are differentiated in GML, so multiedges are cre‐
       ated in GV with no user-available key. Also, no	attribute  information
       is lost, in that any GML attributes that aren't converted to GV equiva‐
       lents are retained as attributes in the output graph.
