O.K. great. (sorry, I forgot.)

Can your tool be used to generate SVg charts like

http://webdot.graphviz.org/cgi-bin/webdot/webdot/graphs/directed/unix.dot.dot.svg

http://webdot.graphviz.org/cgi-bin/webdot/webdot/graphs/directed/shells.dot.dot.svg 
 
http://webdot.graphviz.org/cgi-bin/webdot/webdot/graphs/directed/triedds.dot.dot.svg

, directly from Ruby, in a simple way?


I'd like to be able to (serversidedly) write something like
---
require 'RubyDot'

rdot = RubyDot.new

out = rdot.graph {'dad' => 'girl', 'dad' => 'boy', 'grandma' => 'dad'}, 'svg'

print out
---
I mean, it's kinda tedious to generate the dot file, then syscall Dot to 
generate the graphic.
