5.4 Attribute Format
Attributes are specified as follows:
< attribute keyword > : < attribute value >
All attributes are optional except for the title attribute of nodes and the source and target
attribute of edges. The order of attributes is irrelevant.
The attribute value depends on the attribute and is one of the following:
• String, e. g. title: "My family tree"
• Integer, e. g. width: 700
• Floating point number, e. g. scaling: 1.2

• Combination of the above, e.g. fontname: "helvB10"
• File name, e.g. iconfile: "myicons/butterfly.ppm"
