When writing LLVMC plugins, it can be useful to get a visual view of
the resulting compilation graph. This can be achieved via the command
line option ``--view-graph``. This command assumes that Graphviz [2]_ and
Ghostview [3]_ are installed. There is also a ``--dump-graph`` option that
creates a Graphviz source file(``compilation-graph.dot``) in the
line option ``--view-graph``. This command assumes that Graphviz_ and
Ghostview_ are installed. There is also a ``--dump-graph`` option that
creates a Graphviz source file (``compilation-graph.dot``) in the
current directory.
