_xdot.py_ is an interactive viewer for graphs written in [Graphviz](http://www.graphviz.org/)'s [dot language](http://www.graphviz.org/doc/info/lang.html).

It uses internally the graphviz's [xdot output format](http://www.graphviz.org/doc/info/output.html#d:xdot) as an intermediate format, and [PyGTK](http://www.pygtk.org/) and [Cairo](http://cairographics.org/) for rendering.

xdot.py can be used either as a standalone application from command line, or as a library embedded in your python application.

Status
======

xdot.py script became much more popular than I ever anticipated, and there are several interested in improving it further. However, for several years now, xdot.py already meets my own needs, and unfortunately I don't have much time for maintain it myself.

So I'm looking into transition xdot.py maitenance to others: either hand over the maintenance xdot.py to a community or indicate an official fork of xdot.py.
