fdp: Render the output in a specific format.
$ fdp -T ${select} -O ${path-to-input-gv}
try on your machine
This command likely involves the execution of a program named "fdp" with some additional flags and parameters.
- "fdp" is likely an abbreviation for "force-directed placement," which is a graph layout algorithm used in graph visualization tools like Graphviz.
- The "-T" flag is used to specify the output format for the visualized graph. The "${select}" parameter is likely a placeholder that needs to be replaced with a specific output format, such as "png," "svg," or "pdf."
- The "-O" flag is used to specify the output file name for the generated graph. The "${path-to-input-gv}" parameter is likely a placeholder that needs to be replaced with the actual path to the input Graphviz file (with the .gv extension) that contains the graph structure and attributes.
In summary, the command is likely using the "fdp" program to generate a graph visualization based on the input Graphviz file and save it in a specified output format and file. The actual values of "${select}" and "${path-to-input-gv}" need to be provided for the command to work correctly.
