> Create `.dot` files of the PipeWire graph.
> See also: `dot`, for rendering graph.

- Generate a graph to `pw.dot` file:
`pw-dot`
- Read objects from `pw-dump` JSON file:
`pw-dot {{[-j|--json]}} {{path/to/file.json}}`
- Specify an [o]utput file, showing all object types:
`pw-dot --output {{path/to/file.dot}} {{[-a|--all]}}`
- Print `.dot` graph to `stdout`, showing all object properties:
`pw-dot --output - {{[-d|--detail]}}`
- Generate a graph from a [r]emote instance, showing only linked objects:
`pw-dot --remote {{remote_name}} {{[-s|--smart]}}`
- Lay the graph from left to right, instead of dot's default top to bottom:
`pw-dot {{[-L|--lr]}}`
- Lay the graph using 90-degree angles in edges:
`pw-dot {{[-9|--90]}}`
