gvpack: Combine several graph layouts at the node level, ignoring clusters.
$ gvpack -n ${path-to-layout1-gv} ${path-to-layout2-gv ---} > ${path-to-output-gv}
try on your machine
This command is using the "gvpack" tool to merge two Graphviz layout files into a single output file.
Here's a breakdown of the command syntax and what each component does:
- "gvpack" is the command being executed.
- "-n" is an optional flag that specifies the maximum value for node IDs in the output file.
- "${path-to-layout1-gv}" is the placeholder for the path to the first Graphviz layout file that you want to merge.
- "${path-to-layout2-gv}" is the placeholder for the path to the second Graphviz layout file that you want to merge.
- ">" is a redirect operator used to redirect the output of the command to a file.
- "${path-to-output-gv}" is the placeholder for the path to the output file where the merged layouts will be saved.
In summary, this command uses "gvpack" to combine two Graphviz layout files, specified by "${path-to-layout1-gv}" and "${path-to-layout2-gv}", into a single file determined by "${path-to-output-gv}". The resulting merged layout is saved in the output file.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
