| 26 .SH DESCRIPTION | |
| 27 .B gxl2gv | |
| 28 converts between graphs represented in GXL and in the | |
| 29 GV language. Unless a conversion type is specified using | |
| 30 a flag, | |
| 31 .B gxl2gv | |
| 32 will deduce the type of conversion from the suffix of | |
| 33 the input file, a ".gv" (or a ".dot") suffix causing a conversion from GV | |
| 34 to GXL, and a ".gxl" suffix causing a conversion from GXL to GV. | |
| 35 If no suffix is available, e.g. when the input is from a pipe, | |
| 36 and no flags are used then | |
| 37 .B gxl2gv | |
| 38 assumes the type of the input file from its executable name | |
| 39 so that | |
| 40 .B gxl2gv | |
| 41 converts from GXL to GV, and | |
| 42 .B gv2gxl | |
| 43 converts from GV to GXL. | |
| 44 .PP | |
| 45 GXL supports a much richer graph model than GV. \fBgxl2gv\fP | |
| 46 will attempt to map GXL constructs into the analogous GV construct | |
| 47 when this is possible. If not, the GXL information is stored as | |
| 48 an attribute. The intention is that applying \fBgxl2gv|gv2gxl\fP | |
| 49 is semantically equivalent to the identity operator. | |
| 50 .SH OPTIONS | |
| 51 The following options are supported: | |
| 52 .TP | |
| 53 .B \-g | |
| 54 The command name and input file extensions are ignored, the | |
| 55 input is taken as a GV file and a GXL file is generated. | |
| 56 .TP | |
| 57 .B \-d | |
| 58 The command name and input file extensions are ignored, the | |
| 59 input is taken as a GXL file and a GV file is generated. | |
| 60 .TP | |
| 61 .B \-? | |
| 62 Prints usage information and exits. | |
| 63 .TP | |
| 64 .BI \-o " outfile" | |
| 65 If specified, the output will be written into the file | |
| 66 \fIoutfile\fP. Otherwise, output is written to standard out. | |
| 67 .SH OPERANDS | |
| 68 The following operand is supported: | |
| 69 .TP 8 | |
| 70 .I files | |
| 71 Names of files containing 1 or more graphs in GXL or GV. | |
| 72 If no | |
| 73 .I files | |
| 74 operand is specified, | |
| 75 the standard input will be used. | |
| 76 .SH RETURN CODES | |
| 77 Both \fBgxl2gv\fP and \fBgv2gxl\fP return \fB0\fP | |
| 78 if there were no problems during conversion; | |
| 79 and non-zero if any error occurred. | |
| 80 .SH "BUGS" | |
| 81 \fBgxl2gv\fP will only convert in one direction even if given multiple files | |
| 82 with varying suffixes. | |
| 83 .PP | |
| 84 The conversion can only handle one graph per GXL file. | |
| 85 .PP | |
| 86 There are some GXL constructs which \fBgxl2gv\fP cannot handle. | |
