utils/DSAextract.py

#! /usr/bin/python

#this is a script to extract given named nodes from a dot file, with
#the associated edges.  An edge is kept iff for edge x -> y
# x and y are both nodes specified to be kept.

#known issues: if a line contains '->' and is not an edge line
#problems will occur.  If node labels do not begin with
#Node this also will not work.  Since this is designed to work
#on DSA dot output and not general dot files this is ok.
#If you want to use this on other files rename the node labels
#to Node[.*] with a script or something.  This also relies on
#the length of a node name being 13 characters (as it is in all
#DSA dot output files)

#Note that the name of the node can be any substring of the actual
#name in the dot file.  Thus if you say specify COLLAPSED
#as a parameter this script will pull out all COLLAPSED
#nodes in the file

#Specifying escape characters in the name like \n also will not work, 
#as Python
#will make it \\n, I'm not really sure how to fix this

#currently the script prints the names it is searching for
#to STDOUT, so you can check to see if they are what you intend
