- Description
- GV uses the Graphviz Graph Visualization Software to represent graphs in simple text language (DOT language) that can be understood by both humans and computers.
- VIPS is a libvips file format mainly used for calculations, but it can also store images. The main advantage is that it has no size limit; it's fast and straightforward. Nonetheless, most applications can't view it, so converting it to a more popular format is the only way to work around it.
