Can it use other engines like neato, circo? #5

From the description it seems that only dot can be used. Is that correct?

Yes, I haven't used neato or circo. PR is welcome.

you don't have to explicitly execute neato. just set the engine inside your graph using the layout attribute and dot will call neato for you.

IMO this issue can be closed. @Goblin80's solution works well. Here's a working example using neato for it's ability to specify node positions.

```dot
graph G {
    layout="neato";
    n00 [ pos="0,0!" ];
    n10 [ pos="1,0!"];
    n11 [ pos="1,1!"];
    n00 -- n10 -- n11;   
    n11 -- n00;
}
