Work ... work ... work !!

Given a netlist of circuit modules, does anyone have an
algorithm (preferably a good one) for ordering the modules
for display?

That is, if module 1 feeds module 2 then module
2 should be placed below 1 in any diagram.  (Not necessarily
directly below but lower on the page or display screen.)
Once the vertical ordering is accomplished then ordering the
modules in the horizontal direction for each vetical level
is the next task.  The infinite potentials for feedback, feedforward
etc. seem to make this a difficult task.

Note: The above 2 module system is of course just a "for instance".
      I'm dealing with many module systems.  (Flame stopper!)

Thanks in advance for any help.
