I'm looking for an easy way to draw graphs especially Petri Nets (using
LaTeX). Looking at Lamport's LaTeX-Book it's easy to draw boxes and circles,
but how can the connections between nodes are drawn.
Is there a possibilty for something like:

     \put(x,y){\NODE_TYPE1{node1}}
     \put(a,b){\NODE_TYPE2{node2}}
     \connect{node1,node2}   
              and a directed arc is drawn from the border of node1 to the 
              border of node2.


Please answer by e-mail, I'll summarize to the net.
