hi bjoern!

*urks*, i hate yellow background color ;)
and i actually dont like the labels too... 

well i think it's all a matter of taste and therefore i have now added a 
--bgcolor option and a --style option.

but speaking of this, maybe it would be better if the plugin just output all 
topology information it has (maybe in even binary form) and let the client 
decide which one it wants to display...
