Hi Hartmut,

Hartmut Goebel <h.goebel <at> crazy-compilers.com> skribis:

Can you tell us more about the Trivial Graph Format?

This is orthogonal to adding a new format, so it should probably be a
separate patch.

> +(define (emit-tgf-edge id1 label1 id2 label2 port)
> +  (format port "~a ~a~%" label1 label2))

This is probably incorrect because labels do not necessarily uniquely
identify nodes.  This is why the API distinguishes node identifiers and
labels.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
