% DOTVIEW view history of an object via the DOT interpreter.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%
% DESCRIPTION: DOTVIEW view history of an object via the DOT interpreter. 
% 
% The history is converted to a dot file (www.graphviz.org) then: 
% 1) rendered to the format specified inside the user's LTPDA Toolbox Preferences
% (accessible via the dedicated GUI or typing "LTPDAprefs" on the Matlb terminal) 
% 2) opened with the chosen viewer. 
% 3) The graphic file is kept.
%
% CALL:        dotview(h, pl);
%              dotview(h, 'my_filename');
%              dotview(h);                % Displays only the diagram
%
% INPUTS:      h   - history object
%              pl  - plist of options
