+bbv(1) -- Grow a weighted scale-free random graph
+======
+
+## SYNOPSIS
+
+`bbv` <N> <m> <n0> <w0> <delta>
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+
+`bbv` grows an undirected weighted random scale-free graph with <N>
+nodes using the model proposed by Barrat, Barthelemy, and
+Vespignani. The initial network is a clique of <n0> nodes, and each
+new node creates <m> new edges, each with weight <w0>.  The parameter
+<delta> sets the amount of weight to be redistributed in the
+neighbourhood of newly-connected nodes.
+
+## PARAMETERS
+
+* <N>:
+    Number of nodes of the final graph.
+
+* <m>:
+    Number of edges created by each new node.
+    
+* <n0>:
+    Number of nodes in the initial (seed) graph. 
+
+* <w0>:
+    Weight of each new edge (must be >=0)
+
+* <delta>: 
+    The amount of weight to be redistributed among the neighbours of
+    newly-connected nodes.
+
+## OUTPUT
+
+`bbv` prints on STDOUT the edge list of the final graph, which
+consists of three columns:
+
+        node1 node2 weight
+
+where `weight` is the weight of the corresponding edge. Please note
+that each edge is printed only once. 
+
+## EXAMPLES
+
+The following command:
+
+        $ bbv 10000 3 5 1.0 0.5 > bbv_10000_3_5_1.0_0.5.txt
+
+creates a weighted scale-free graph with <N=10000> nodes, where each
+new node creates <m=3> new edges and the initial seed network is a
+ring of <n0=5> nodes. Each new edge has an initial weight equal to
+<w0>. The weights of existing edges are rearranged after the addition
+of a new edge, by rearranging an amount of weight equal to <delta>. 
+The final graph is saved in the file `bbv_10000_3_5_1.0_0.5.txt`
+(notice the STDOUT redirection operator `>`).
