Graph Key

Nodes of different colours represent the following:

Solid arrows point from a submodule to the (sub)module which it is descended from. Dashed arrows point from a module or program unit to modules which it uses. Where possible, edges connecting nodes are given different colours to make them easier to distinguish in large graphs.
