DotExporter on Windows OS cannot create a graph plot

_python anytree_pictureexport.py `from anytree import Node, RenderTree from anytree.exporter import DotExporter

udo = Node("Udo") marc = Node("Marc", parent=udo) lian = Node("Lian", parent=marc) dan = Node("Dan", parent=udo) jet = Node("Jet", parent=dan) jan = Node("Jan", parent=dan) joe = Node("Joe", parent=dan)

DotExporter(udo).to_picture("udo.png")`

I am trying to produce a graph plot with anytree (see code above) and getting the following error:

>python anytree_picture_export.py Error: dot: can't open c:\users\user\appdata\local\temp\tmpvdgutg Traceback (most recent call last): File "anytree_picture_export.py", line 12, in <module> DotExporter(udo).to_picture("udo.png") File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\anytree\exporter\dotexporter.py", line 229, in to_picture check_call(cmd) File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 190, in check_call raise CalledProcessError(retcode, cmd) subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['dot', 'c:\\users\\user\\appdata\\local\\temp\\tmpvdgutg', '-T', 'png', '-o', 'udo.png']' returned non-zero exit status 2

I tried to change the file format to "pdf" and "jpg" with the same error message. Stepping through the DotExporter, the temporary file dotfile is created and the dot lines are written correctly, yet there seems to be a problem with file permission or handling.

It is fixed in #47 I will release a new anytree version the next days.

I know it's a a bit much to ask, but would it be possible to release the latest version? The current release (2.4.3) does not include that changes... and as you know, us windows user, are not exactly the best at installing anything outside of the safe zone of _pip install name_ofpackage
