+xdot.py is an interactive viewer for graphs written in Graphviz's dot
+language.
+
+It uses internally the graphviz's xdot output format as an intermediate
+format, and PyGTK and Cairo for rendering.
+
+xdot.py can be used either as a standalone application from command line, or
+as a library embedded in your python application.
+
+Features:
+ * Since it doesn't use bitmaps it is fast and has a small memory footprint.
+ * Arbitrary zoom.
+ * Keyboard/mouse navigation.
+ * Supports events on the nodes with URLs.
+ * Animated jumping between nodes.
+ * Highlights node/edge under mouse.
+
+This package requires Graphviz and PyGTK, both avalaible at SlackBuilds.org.
