That's pretty cool! Do you happen to still have the perl scripts laying around?

Yes, you showed me that at the meeting. It looks like a pretty
interesting program,
aside from the non-libreness of it.
Thanks for bit of talk about graphviz and this posting. I was sorta

it is still rather primitive.
I think the application I mentioned, my "make workalike", will retain
a feature for producing graphs of file dependencies.
