[Click] Configuration visualizer?

[Eddie Kohler]

Hi Anand, sorry for the delay.

Those pictures from the thesis & other papers were generated by 
MetaPost, with a fair amount of hand tweaking.  There is a set of macros 
for generating the diagrams: check out etc/diagrams in the Click 
distribution for the macros and examples of their use.

MetaPost is a useful tool if you like precise control over your 
diagrams, both aesthetic and technical.  But I wouldn't recommend it for 
most people -- I kind of wish I had never learned it. ;)
