I get an error that may be related to your code (or most probably to my inexperience)
When I try to add any parameter using the -a option, I always get an empty output and a “gvpr: gvpr” message:
$ dot input.dot | gvpr -a 'size=rank' -cf addGrid.gvpr
// SIZE start: 72pt delta: 0
// SIZE end: 72pt size: 72 delta: 0
// ARG >size=rank<
// type: s
gvpr: gvpr
The “offending line” is
187 Val=substr(ARGV[i],Indx);
After adding some prints to debug, the problem is that Indx value is -3.
