I wrote a paper a few years ago on dealing with graph displays
interactively (moving nodes on the screen to make them look
nicer, etc.) There is a huge literature on this topic,
annual conferences etc.
The display was specifically for Allegro Common Lisp; I don't
have any idea of how it could be rewritten to be
lisp-dialect independent.
