Connects a parent snip to a child snip within a pasteboard.
The default @racket[dark-pen]/@racket[dark-brush] and
@racket[light-pen]/@racket[light-brush] are blue and purple,
respectively. The @racket[dark-pen] and @racket[dark-brush] are used
when the mouse cursor is over the snip (or a child or parent), and the
@racket[light-pen] and @racket[light-brush] are used when the mouse
cursor is not over the snip. The brush is used to draw inside the
arrow head and the pen is used to draw the border of the arrowhead and
the line connecting the two snips.
if @racket[label] is provided and not @racket[#f], it is used as a
label on the edge.
When @racket[dx] and @racket[dy] are provided, the are offsets for the
head and the tail of the arrow. Otherwise, @racket[0] offsets are
used.}

void?]{
This finds the sizes of the @racket[graph-snip<%>]s in @racket[pb] and their
children and then passes that information to @tt{dot} or @tt{neato} (depending
on @racket[option]), extracting a layout and then applying it to the
snips in @racket[pb].
If @racket[option] is @racket[dot-label], then @racket[overlap-or-horizontal?]
controls whether @tt{dot} uses a horizontal or vertical alignment.
If @racket[option] is any of the other options, it controls whether or not
@tt{neato} is allowed to overlap nodes.
If @racket[find-dot] returns @racket[#f], this function does nothing.
}
@defproc[(find-dot [neato? boolean? #f]) (or/c path? #f)]{
Tries to find the @tt{dot} or @tt{neato} binary and, if it succeeds,
returns the path to it. If it cannot find it, returns
@racket[#f].
