Well, one reason I haven't included anything like that is because I'm
not sure what to write, or where to put it!

If you're using FGL graphs, you probably want [graphToDot]; otherwise,
[graphElemsToDot] might do what you want (for which I've written an
[example], which is also linked to from the [FAQ]).
