[vtkusers] file format for graphs

Thanks for confirming, Jeff.  I was assuming those were the classes to use, but I mis-used when tweaking Examples/Infovis/Python/graph1.py   Now I see that it's working.  But leads to more questions:

- the POINTS coords are all 0?  So they don't reflect the graph layout?
- is there a method that lets me show directedness of a directed graph (e.g. arrows)?
- it seems that when I write binary, the EDGES  list are still in ascii
- any idea if there is a non-VTK format that's preferred for graphs?

(maybe some of my questions pertain to Titan/Overview)

thanks, Randy
