edgepaint: Colorize edges using a color scheme. (See <https://graphviz.org/doc/info/colors.html#brewer>).
$ edgepaint -color-scheme=${accent7} ${path-to-layout-gv} > ${path-to-output-gv}
try on your machine
The given command, "edgepaint -color-scheme=${accent7} ${path-to-layout-gv} > ${path-to-output-gv}", consists of several components:
- "edgepaint": This is the name of a command or executable that is being invoked.
- "-color-scheme=${accent7}": This flag specifies a parameter for the edgepaint command. In this case, it is setting the color scheme to be used in the process. The value is ${accent7}, which is likely a variable or placeholder for a specific color scheme.
- "${path-to-layout-gv}": This is a placeholder for the path to a file called "layout.gv". The actual path should be provided instead of the placeholder.
- "> ${path-to-output-gv}": The ">" symbol is a redirection operator in the command line. It redirects the output of the command to a file specified by the path provided after it. In this case, the output of the "edgepaint" command will be saved to a file called "output.gv". The path should be replaced with the actual path.
In summary, this command would execute the "edgepaint" command with the specified color scheme, using the "layout.gv" file as input, and save the output to the "output.gv" file.
