  /// This utility writes an \ref lgf-format "LGF" file.
  ///
  /// The writing method does a batch processing. The user creates a
  /// writer object, then various writing rules can be added to the
  /// 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
  /// DigraphWriter<Digraph>(digraph, std::cout).
  ///   nodeMap("coordinates", coord_map).
  ///   nodeMap("size", size).
  ///   nodeMap("title", title).
  ///   arcMap("capacity", cap_map).
  ///   node("source", src).
  ///   node("target", trg).
  ///   attribute("caption", caption).
  ///   run();
  ///\endcode
  ///
  ///
  /// By default, the writer does not write additional captions to the
  /// sections, but they can be give as an optional parameter of
  /// 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
  /// output to the output of the first pass.
