[opensuse] Relative to kscope, what is dot ?
All, I want to try out kscope. (a kernel code editing platform). During the initial setup it needs the path to dot. I have no idea what dot is? I don't see it yast, on the build service, etc. Any help?

I have no idea what path *to* dot is. My best guess is that it needs dot (.) included in the $PATH environment variable export PATH=$PATH:. Not that it makes much sense, but what do I know Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

They don't perchance mean having dot (current directory) in the path do they? -- ----------JSA--------- Someone stole my tag line, so now I have this rental. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I just looked at kscope, and they actually want the path to a program called dot It is a part of the graphviz package, and when that is installed, the path to it is /usr/bin/dot Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Thanks Anders,
And I'm glad I'm not the only one that had never heard of dot. :)

But now that you know of it and are using it, if only implicitly / indirectly, check out what it can do. It's a fascinating and powerful package. http://www.graphviz.org/ Perhaps the best part is how easy it is to generate the DOT input files (the graph descriptor files that are the input to all the GraphViz processing). With that, you have all the fancy graph layout and visualization capabilities of the package at your fingertips.
