------- Comment #10 from Stefan Kost (gstreamer, gtkdoc dev)  2007-09-25 07:44 UTC -------
I don't see the advantage of separate directory and filename-template, but I
can add checking for '%'.

I could rebase the patch to be in gst-plugins-base/gst/libs/gst/xxx
as dump.{c,h} and change the macros from
GST_DEBUG_BIN_TO_DOT_FILE
GST_DEBUG_BIN_TO_DOT_FILE_WITH_TS
to
GST_DUMP_BIN_TO_DOT_FILE
GST_DUMP_BIN_TO_DOT_FILE_WITH_TS

What I don't like about it and why I still prefer it in gstinfo:
* is it still obvious that it will be disabled/enabled accourding to
--enable-gst-debug?
* apps have to conditionaly link against extra libs for debug utils
* core even has stuuf like gst_parse_launch, which I belive really should be in
a utitily library
