Just spent a couple of mins on this and came up with the following to
produce a graphic using graphviz.

http://gist.github.com/282966

ruby graph.rb /path/to/app/views graph.png

It generates something like the attached graph.png

Code isn't very good to look at, I'm sure with a bit more work it
could produce something nicer, and with much better code!

Cheers.
