To use this, you need a web server with support for PHP. I use PHP 5;
not sure if PHP 4 would work. You also need Graphviz. You can specify
at the top of graph.php where your Graphviz executably is stored.
Note that it doesn't work with the MacPorts graphviz port right now;
some pango error... It does work with my Graphviz 2.14.1 binaries
which are available here:

It also works with the older Pixelglow version of Graphviz:
http://www.pixelglow.com/graphviz/
Note that portviz doesn't cache any information right now, and the
port command takes time to return information, so it can take several
seconds or even a minute or longer for large graphs to be shown.
How hard would it be to integrate this with ports? Would it just
need to be converted to tcl? I think that just generating the dot
file would be enough, not need to generate the graphic.
I've thought about integrating this into MacPorts base before. I
can't speak to how hard it would be. I can say that it would be hard
for me to do so. My tcl and my knowledge of MacPorts base is still
insufficient for the task. So I wrote it in PHP, which I know very well.
