Bug Description

1. Create a file called test.paj with this data

*Network test.net
*Vertices 4
1 "ALPHA" ic red 0.732575 0.433912 ellipse
2 "BETA" ic red 0.732575 0.962617 ellipse
3 "GAMMA" ic red 0.987198 0.0133511 ellipse
4 "DELTA" ic red 0.987198 0.728972 ellipse
*Arcs
1 2 1 c black
2 3 1 c black
3 4 1 c black
*Edges
4 1 1 c black

2. Load that file in SocNetV v2.0.

The loaded network should be displayed as directed graph since there are 3 arcs present (1->2, 2->3 and 3->4). There should also be a reciprocal directed edge between 4-1

Nevertheless, SocNetV v2.0 displays the network as undirected, interpreting all links to be undirected edges, which is completely wrong.

Because of that, if you save the file again, all links will be saved as edges:

*Network test.net
*Vertices 4
1 "ALPHA" ic red 0.201991 0.461949 ellipse
2 "BETA" ic red 0.733997 0.963952 ellipse
3 "GAMMA" ic red 0.733997 0.0801068 ellipse
4 "DELTA" ic red 0.98862 0.730307 ellipse
*Arcs
*Edges
1 2 1 c black
1 4 1 c black
2 3 1 c black
3 4 1 c black
