This can be achieved via the command line option ``--view-graph``. This command assumes that Graphviz_ and -Ghostview_ are installed. There is also a ``--dump-graph`` option that +Ghostview_ are installed. There is also a ``--write-graph`` option that creates a Graphviz source file (``compilation-graph.dot``) in the current directory. |
