Show processes as well as inputs and outputs

Before I found this, I found this: https://github.com/TomConlin/MakefileViz
When I used this I found that processes themselves were not visualised. It would be quite cool if it showed the processes that were used as well in between inputs and outputs. I realise that each recipe itself would be considered a process, where the recipes call other processes. Later in the future, this can be used to visualise to create subgraphs within a larger graph.

Me too enjoy the suggestion!
To give a user test case, if the Makefile would be:
output.txt: input.txt
Rscript do_it.R
The graph should be something along the lines of:
digraph g {
A -> B;
A [label="input.txt"];
B [label="output.txt"];
A -> B [label="Rscript do_it.R"];
}
I do volunteer to test.
