Summary0014163: Graphviz compacting external libs to make the graph more readable
DescriptionWith
SET(GRAPHVIZ_EXTERNAL_LIBS OFF)
I get a great overview of our product and its dependencies.
But when I enable GRAPHVIZ_EXTERNAL_LIBS, the whole thing just explodes with > 30 external dependencies, each with the full absolute path.

It would be really valuable to compact all the dependencies that belong together into one node with a custom name.
My first thought was to post process the dot file, but why not handle that in the generator itself.

How about the following. It contains pairs with a name for the node and a regex for what it captures:

SET(GRAPHVIZ_EXTERNAL_GROUPS
  boost .*libboost.*\.(so|lib|dll)
  hoops .*hoops.*\.(so|lib|dll)
  acis .*Spa.*\.(so|lib|dll)
  teigha .*TD_.*\.(so|lib|dll)
)


Before I start implementing, I'd like to have some feedback.
