text-mode

If I'm not mistaken, GraphViz is capable of generating text-based output, that could be used in an all-console environment.
This request then, is to include the option for generating a text-only dependency-tree, that could be used with taskwarrior, in a CLI environment.
Based on this, I think you're right. I'll try to add either a command line switch or a configuration line at the top of the script some time during the next few days. Cool suggestion!
It's an interesting puzzle, because taskgv.py doesn't currently have a lot of configuration options.. maybe;
a) have optional configurations in the code that can be uncommented/ commented out.
b) add a new argument or option, first word after taskgv.py is the output-format, so
taskgv.py plain status:pending proj:foo
or
taskgv.py -f plain status:pending proj:foo
would use config under "plain" part of code..
c) a .taskgvrc file has the output-format-config blocks, which are selected by the new arg in b)
random ideas 4U!
The aim of this project is fairly neatly met by the functionality that's already implemented.
(Aside from that, sorry about the truly hideous lag between your post and my response.)
