This module makes it easy to visualise data structures, even recursive or
circular ones.
It is provided as an alternative to GraphViz::Data::Grapher. Differences:
- GraphViz::Data::Structure handles structures of arbitrary depth and
complexity, automatically following links using a standard graph
traversal algorithm.
- GraphViz::Data::Grapher creates graphics of indiividual substructures
(arrays, scalars, hashes) which keep the substructure type and data
together; GraphViz::Data::Structure does this by shape alone.
- GraphViz::Data::Structure encapsulates object info (if any) directly
into the node being used to represent the class.
- GraphViz::Data::Grapher colors its graphs; GraphViz::Data::Structure
doesn't by default.
- GraphViz::Data:Structure can parse out globs and CODE references (almost
as well as the debugger does).
