[Dev] Call graph generator?

Hello

A couple of things come to mind:

1.  xref - freeware dos tool for doing such stuff.   I believe it was the
source for the linux package below:
     cxref - Generates latex and HTML documentation for C programs.
2.  sourcecode navigator from cygnus/redhat.  Very nice.
3. id utils - doesn't do call graphs, but I use it everyday for searching
for functions and symbols.
4. And if you have the money, visual slickedit.  It will walk the call
stack up and down.  I use it now for VxWorks code and its amazing.

My search for the same thing was not fruitful:
1. C-doc, commercial applicaiton, about $300
2. Doxegen, open source, it looks like you need to integrate it with the
code
to create a document that compiles into a executable; supposedly it will do
graphs; seems to be a lifestyle choice instead of a quick and dirty graph
tool; I've not talked to anyone who actually used it
