From https://graphviz.org/docs/outputs/ascii/
Since Graphviz 13.0.0, if Graphviz was built with AAlib support, the output format
asciiwill produce an ASCII art representation of the input graph.
Simply set the output format to ascii:
dot -Tascii input.dot
Note: as of writing (April 2025), version 13.0.0 is unreleased - https://gitlab.com/graphviz/graphviz/-/blob/dcdd75784dbe655b728da4d62a3b1e4aed142521/CHANGELOG.md
