 .SH USAGE
 Input data is read from standard input if no inputfile is specified. Output is written to standard output unless a destination file is set with the \fB-o\fP option. 
 
-\fBdot2tex\fP relies on the \fIxdot format\fP generated by Graphviz. \fBdot2tex\fP will automatically try to convert an input file in the plain dot format to this format, but it is recommended to feed xdot data directly to \fBdot2tex\fP due to some limitations in the pydot module.
+\fBdot2tex\fP relies on the \fIxdot format\fP generated by Graphviz. \fBdot2tex\fP will automatically run
+.BR dot (1)
+on the input data if it is in the plain dot format. If you want to use other layout tools like
+.BR neato (1)
+and
+.BR circo (1),
+use the \fB\-\-prog\fP option.
