    Graphviz app



    I'm very new to linux and I am not sure how to install programs.
    I can only access linux though the command prompt which makes installing software much harder (i'm using linux remotely)

    The sofware i want to install and use is Graphviz
    Graphviz

    I'm not sure what a .rpm file is nor do i know how to install it though the command prompt.

    any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
