💖 NAUTY-DIRECTG(1) 💖

okay bestie so this page lives in the User Commands section of the manual, and it's giving... honestly? it's giving sad. but we're gonna get through it together 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

nauty-directg — graph-processing utility from the nauty suite

like, that's the whole pitch. a graph-processing utility. from the nauty suite. she's a queen, she's an icon, she would be slaying graph stuff for you. would. keep reading 💀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the thing, and I need you to sit down for this one 🎀

instead of describing what nauty-directg does (which, rude, but okay), the description on this page is literally the sound of her not showing up to the function. this is what you get:

./nauty-directg: error while loading shared libraries:
libnauty-2.9.3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory

and like — not to be dramatic — but that is the entire description. no OPTIONS. no EXAMPLES. no SEE ALSO. no little paragraphs about graph isomorphism or canonical labelling or any of the cute stuff you were probably hoping for. 😭

what's happening here, fr fr: the program went to load libnauty-2.9.3.so, the shared library it needs, and the dynamic linker was like "bestie... I have never met her." hence:

  • error while loading shared libraries
  • cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

so nauty-directg never even got to start. she didn't fail at graph processing. she failed at existing. that's the vibe. 🦋

heads up — this page is a placeholder. it's not documentation of nauty-directg's behaviour, it's the loader crying in public. don't go reading options into it, because there aren't any here to read. 💅

if you're staring at this wondering where your graph utility went: yeah. same. the manpage is just... the error. that's the whole manual. no cap. 💀

ngl, this one was a short read, and I respect a page that knows when to stop talking ✨

🌸 this page is from nauty-directg 2.9.3, dated January 2026 — mwah, love that for her, even if the library didn't show up 💖 🎀
