+This directive allows embedding [mscgen](http://www.mcternan.me.uk/mscgen/)
+message sequence chart graphs in a page.
+
+Here's an mscgen source example.
+
+    \[[!msc src="""
+      arcgradient = 8;
+
+      a [label="Client"],b [label="Server"];
+
+      a=>b [label="data1"];
+      a-xb [label="data2"];
+      a=>b [label="data3"];
+      a<=b [label="ack1, nack2"];
+      a=>b [label="data2", arcskip="1"];
+      |||;
+      a<=b [label="ack3"];
+      |||;
