Summary description: Create graphs within LaTeX using Graphviz and the 
  dot2tex tool
License type: gpl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The dot2texi package allows you to embed graphs in the DOT graph
description language in your LaTeX documents. The dot2tex[1] tool is
used to invoke Graphviz[2] for graph layout, and to transform the output
from Graphviz to LaTeX code.  The generated code relies on the TikZ and
PGF package or the PSTricks package. The process is automated if shell
escape is enabled.

New in version 2.0:

- Improved platform detection. Windows users no longer need to specify the
  miktex option.
- Added forceshell package option.
- Added codeonly, styleonly and autosize environment options.
