anyone have some snazzy directed-graph visualization software?

Hi--

     Does anyone have software that can draw a nice 3D visualization of
large directed graphs? I wrote out a graph of a recent Spoon memory with
object addresses as the nodes, in DOT (GraphViz) format[1]. There are
many cycles, of course. :)  I tried Tulip, but can't get it to do much.


     thanks!

Hi Craig,

I often use hyperbolic views for visualizing large directed graphs, like  
for a site map of a web site and/or their external references.

There are (of course) many implementations and one which can deal with  
cycles is

Enjoy.

Hi Klaus--

     Yeah, I noticed Tamara's stuff, but I'd rather not have to port
stuff to MacOSX, my current host platform.

I will be creating some of this as part of my Peek proposal, but
it will not be ready for a while:
