As an alternative to using the Vuo editor, you can use command-line tools to work with Vuo compositions. Although most Vuo users will only need the Vuo editor, you might want to use the command-line tools if:
You’re writing a program or script that works with Vuo compositions. (Another option is the Vuo API.)
You’re working with Vuo compositions in a text-only environment, such as SSH.
A Vuo composition (.vuo file) is actually a text file based on the Graphviz DOT format. You can go through the complete process of creating, compiling, linking, and running a Vuo composition entirely in a shell.
