+This module lets you create graphs (nodes/vertices connected by edges/arcs,
+not pie charts!) and then lay them out on a flat surface.
+
+Once laid out, the graph can be converted into various output formats like
+ASCII art, HTML or SVG. You can also output the graph in graphviz format
+and let dot/neato/circo etc. do the layout for you.
+
+Graphs can be either generated by Perl code, parsed from a simple text format
+that is human readable and maintainable, or parsed from Graphviz code.
