I am pretty interested in Graphviz after I could not find any other quiet useful diagramming tool for the mac.

+2  A: 

Walk through making digraph (directed graph) text files with this brief tutorial. After making the digraph text file, open it with Graphviz to render it into an image file.

I find the documentation very helpful.

The documentation is pretty bad, lacks examples, hard to interpret and is not an tutorial at all.
Thanks
it [has examples](http://www.graphviz.org/doc/info/attrs.html#d:color). But true, it's not a tutorial.

Don't forget the Graphviz Documentation Index: http://www.graphviz.org/doc/ There you can find more detailed documents, such as the dot User's Manual: http://www.graphviz.org/pdf/dotguide.pdf

This got me started.

A: 

The examples are probably going to be more helpful than anything else in getting those "how do you..." questions answered.

On another note - have you looked at OmniGraffle for diagramming? It's my go-to substitute for MacDraw (am I showing my age here?).
