Doug Coleman b2176f98a7 Use gvplugin_list instead of gvPluginList
Make graphviz unix only for several reasons:
1) Win32 graphviz doesn't have the gvplugin_list() exported and we don't have a word to check if an ffi call exists before attempting to call it so we are unable to find a two-state solution with both gvplugin_list and gvPluginList
2) Compiling the Graphviz Project on Windows is extremely broken under Cygwin, MinGW and Visual Studio 2008 and fails to compile without major changes and still has disabled projects and thousands of warnings/errors. Th HOWTO on their website is outdated on all counts and the maintainer has not replied to my email asking for help. I do not have time to be a Graphviz maintainer myself.
3) When I did manage to compile it on Windows, none of the engines are avaialable to the dlls we load so the compiled Graphviz has no features except symbol exports. The same is true for the binary package--we do not have access to the
4) There is no win64 binary of Graphviz on their website and compiling it would likely result in an unusable set of dlls as per above

<h1>The Factor programming language</h1>

<h2>Getting started</h2>

<p>If you are reading this README file, you either downloaded a binary
package, or checked out Factor sources from the GIT repository.</p>

<ul>
<li><a href="http://concatenative.org/wiki/view/Factor/Learning">Learning Factor</a></li>
<li><a href="http://concatenative.org/wiki/view/Factor/Requirements">System requirements</a></li>
<li><a href="http://concatenative.org/wiki/view/Factor/Building%20Factor">Building Factor from source</a> (don't do this if you're using a binary package)</li>
</ul>

<p>To run Factor:<p>

<ul>
<li>Windows: Double-click <code>factor.exe</code>, or run
<code>.\factor.com</code> in a command prompt</li>
<li>Mac OS X: Double-click <code>Factor.app</code> or run <code>open
Factor.app</code> in a Terminal</li>
<li>Unix: Run <code>./factor</code> in a shell</li>
</ul>

<h2>Documentation</h2>

<p>The Factor environment includes extensive reference documentation and
a short "cookbook" to help you get started. The best way to read the
documentation is in the UI; press F1 in the UI listener to open the help
browser tool. You can also <a href="http://docs.factorcode.org">browse
the documentation online</a>.</p>

<h2>Command line usage</h2>

<p>Factor supports a number of command line switches. To read command line
usage documentation, enter the following in the UI listener:</p>

<pre>"command-line" about</pre>

<h2>Source organization</h2>

The Factor source tree is organized as follows:

<li><code>build-support/</code> - scripts used for compiling Factor (not
present in binary packages)</li>
<li><code>vm/</code> - Factor VM source code (not present in binary
packages)</li>
<li><code>core/</code> - Factor core library</li>
<li><code>basis/</code> - Factor basis library, compiler, tools</li>
<li><code>extra/</code> - more libraries and applications</li>
<li><code>misc/</code> - editor modes, icons, etc</li>
<li><code>unmaintained/</code> - unmaintained contributions, please
help!</li>

<h2>Community</h2>

<p>Factor developers meet in the <code>#concatenative</code> channel on <a
href="http://freenode.net">irc.freenode.net</a>. Drop by if you want to discuss
anything related to Factor or language design in general.</p>
