VIMDOT(1) General Commands Manual VIMDOT(1)

NAME
vimdot − Combined text editor and dot viewer
SYNOPSIS
vimdot [ file]
DESCRIPTION
vimdot is a simple script which launches the gvim or vim editor along with a GUI window showing the dot
output of the edited file. The dot output window automatically refreshes everytime the file is saved in the
editor.
If no filename is given, vimdot will use ’noname.gv’ and initialise it with an example graph to get you
started.
The GUI window (provided by "dot -Txlib") supports zooming using the mouse scroll-wheel, and panning
by holding the scroll-wheel down and dragging.
