You can run PlantUML Dependency using the following simplest command :
java -jar plantuml-dependency-1.0.1.jar -o plantuml.txt
 
This will look for all java source files into the current directory recursively, creating a plantuml.txt file describing the PlantUML class diagram description. 
 
For processing an other directory, you can use :
java -jar plantuml-dependency-1.0.1.jar -b "~/directory1"
  
To filter source files to parse, you can use ANT patterns to include or exclude files :
java -jar plantuml-dependency-1.0.1.jar -i **/*Test*.java -e **/*Generated*.java
  
To change the output file path, you can use :
java -jar plantuml-dependency-1.0.1.jar -o "/directory1/test-plantuml.txt"

Radegast:platUml-DEMO miro$ java -jar ../plantuml-dependency-1.1.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar -b /Users/miro/src/apache-ant-1.8.1/src/main -o ant-sources.txt

## ... edit ant-sources.txt to include img/target.png and make it smaller
