ancestorg [-q] [-g#:#|-g#] [infile [outfile]]

The g-th generation ancestor of a graph is the graph obtained by removing

the final g vertices. The 0-th generation ancestor is the graph itself. For each input graph, write the ancestors whose generation is given by the g argument.  No zero-sized graphs are written. Output is always in graph6 format.

The output file has a header if and only if the input file does.
