   /// writer, and eventually the writing is executed with the \c run()

   /// member function. A map writing rule can be added to the writer

   /// with the \c nodeMap() or \c arcMap() members. An optional

   /// converter parameter can also be added as a standard functor

   /// converting from the value type of the map to \c std::string. If it

   /// is set, it will determine how the value type of the map is written to

   /// the output stream. If the functor is not set, then a default

   /// conversion will be used. The \c attribute(), \c node() and \c

   /// arc() functions are used to add attribute writing rules.

   ///

   ///\code

   /// the \c nodes(), \c arcs() or \c

   /// attributes() functions.

   ///

   /// The \c skipNodes() and \c skipArcs() functions forbid the

   /// writing of the sections. If two arc sections should be written

   /// to the output, it can be done in two passes, the first pass

   /// writes the node section and the first arc section, then the

   /// second pass skips the node section and writes just the arc

   /// section to the stream. The output stream can be retrieved with

   /// the \c ostream() function, hence the second pass can append its
