.dot file

Hello Christophe,

The "label" attribute was being parsed correctly, but wasn't being 
applied to the line.  I've just made a change to the code and for me the 
label is showing up now.  The next beta release will have the update.

The "weight" attribute is just being ignored.  Our automatic graph 
layout doesn't make use of line weighting yet.

Our DOT support is only partial, but if you find more attributes that 
you need, let us know and we may be able to easily add them.

Best Regards,
Kevin
