But if we wanted to add support I'd target the GraphML format, which is understood by Gephi and other graph analysis packages: http://graphml.graphdrawing.org/ A simple project for a student could be an extension that exports GraphML from a spreadsheet. -Rob > > Louis >> >> For example: >> >> A,B >> B,C >> B,D >> >> This shows A depends on B, and B depends on C and D >> >> You can also repeat edges to give them greater weight. >> >> When graphing you can then scale the nodes so the ones that have the >> highest in-degree are larges, i.e., the ones that most other modules >> depend upon, etc. You can also color code.
