in reply to Better than GraphViz?

Firstly, scale-blur-scale won't actually anti-alias the picture, although probably will prettyify it to some extent. The best way would be to generate the picture at twice the reoslution (or better) that you finally want, and then just scale down - that will give you a better anti-alias.

As for replacements - perhaps you can try linking to Guppi? I don't know of any dedicated Perl modules for it, but presumably it's Bonobo/corba-ized, which might help.

    There seems to be a general misunderstanding about the word "graph". GraphViz doesn't create charts, but graphs.

    A graph is a collection of nodes and edges. (like cities and interconnecting roads).

      Graphviz allows output to SVG format (among others). Which might solve some problems, but create others (e.g., you need an SVG viewer to see the results).
