Comment (by ncohen):

 Helloooooo !

 > The documentation is currently being extended, but I'm travelling at the
 moment so I didn't get as far with this ticket as I hoped to have.

 Oh I see I see, I had not even noticed that the ticket was not in
 `needs_review`. Sorry for interrupting.

 > I thought about making it just one function, but thought that it would
 make the meaning of the arguments less obvious to users. Of course, you
 could just add an argument `triangulations` and `quadrangulations`, but I
 think that having separate methods is a cleaner solution. I could add a
 helper function to which the three functions dispatch to factor out the
 common code.

 Nononnono I agree with that, the four functions are fine ! I was only
 talking about the code: why wouldn't the first function call the other
 ones so that there is no duplication of code ?

 > Concerning the name. Since also graphs with a connectivity lower than 3
 can be generated, this function really generates plane graphs, i.e.,
 planar graphs together with an embedding, and not just planar graphs. The
 graphs are generated up to isomorphism of the plane graph.

 Oh, do you mean that the function will output all different embeddings of
 non-3-connected planar graphs ? If so that's worth a note/warning in the
 doc !

 I am still a bit troubled by this distinction between "plane graphs" and
 "planar graphs". Especially when the website of plantri/fullgen reads
 "planar graph" everywhere.
