Dear,

I am always annoyed when I use "guix graph" because most of the time I run:

  guix graph htop | grep label

or something along these lines.  Instead, the patch avoids the grep part:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ ./pre-inst-env guix graph -b plain htop
htop <at> 3.0.2
autoconf <at> 2.69
perl <at> 5.30.2
m4 <at> 1.4.18
automake <at> 1.16.2
autoconf-wrapper <at> 2.69
guile <at> 2.0.14
pkg-config <at> 0.29.2
libffi <at> 3.3
bash-minimal <at> 5.0.16
libunistring <at> 0.9.10
libltdl <at> 2.4.6
libgc <at> 8.0.4
gmp <at> 6.2.0
bash <at> 5.0.16
readline <at> 8.0.4
ncurses <at> 6.2
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


It is then easier to pipe with other Guix commands, for example:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix build $(./pre-inst-env guix graph -b plain htop | grep bash)

Note that the manual is not updated since, since I do not know how to extend
the relevant section.   Note also that "tests/guix-graph.sh" does not test any
of the backends.


All the best,
simon
