This is GraphThing, a graph theory tool, written by David Symonds. You can email me at [email protected].

INSTALLATION

GraphThing requires wxWidgets 2.6.1 (or later).
    [http://www.wxwidgets.org]
To build GraphThing, you'll also need GNU make, bison and flex.

Run the following commands:

* ./configure
* make          [ or "gmake" ]

and optionally:

* make install      [ as root ]

If you don't run "make install", you can execute the binary from
the src/ directory.

It is not uncommon for the configure script to be unable to find your
wxWidgets installation. Pass it the full path to the wx-config script,
as in:

    ./configure --with-wx-config=/usr/local/bin/wx-config

The configuration script takes all the usual options. Use
    ./configure --help
for a complete list. If you want to use an alternative C++ compiler,
run the command
    CXX=/usr/g++295/bin/g++ ./configure
where "/usr/g++295/bin/g++" is the command in question.

OPERATION

Most of the operations are intuitive, but there are a couple of
confusing things:

In Vertex Mode:
    * To create a vertex: Double click on a blank area
    * To move a vertex: Click and drag it
    * To select multiple vertices: Hold shift while clicking
    * To modify vertex properties: Double click on the vertex
    * To delete a vertex: Select it and press the Delete key
In Edge Mode:
    * To create an edge: Click on first vertex, then click on
                second vertex
    * To select multiple edges: Hold shift while clicking
    * To modify edge properties: Double click on the edge
    * To delete an edge: Select it and press the Delete key
