Very nice! I can see how this would be very useful to many people.

A relatively new feature of DAGMan is the ability to create so called dot 
files. Dot is part of the graphviz package, and it can create graphical 
represetations of DAGs. Just add a command to you DAGMan input file, and it 
will create one or more dot files, which you can visualize with dot.

It's documented in Section 2.11.7 of the Condor 6.6.0 manual:

http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v6.6/2_11DAGMan_Applications.html#SECTION003117000000000000000

This is a very different visualization from watch_dag, and both have their 
place. I'm glad to see that watch_dag has become available.
