A sample reader confusion after reading the above twice:

    What is "the graph-head file" and how does the user specify it?  Is
    it given by  the value for the "--file=<name>" command line option?
This confusion is somewhat lightened with s/graph-head/graph-latest/
(I just saw 07/13 to realize that the file is renamed).

Perhaps describe it as "Read the graph file currently active
(i.e. the one pointed at by graph-latest file in the object/info
directory) and output blah" + "With --file parameter, read the
graph file specified with that parameter instead"?
