Ribosomal RNA Database Project University of Illinois Report bugs to \ 
mrmike@geta.life.uiuc.edu Treetool is an interactive tool for displaying, \ 
editing, andprinting phylogenetic trees. The tree is displayed visually on \ 
screen, in various formats, and theuser is able to modify the format, structure, \ 
and characteristics of the tree. Trees may be viewed, compared, formatted for \ 
printing, constructed from smaller trees, etc... Treetool works with Newick \ 
format tree files (Paup and Phylip compatible). It handles multifurcating trees, \ 
branch lengths (evolutionary distances), rooted/unrooted trees, and multiple \ 
trees per file. It can print to a PostScript printer, or output PICT graphics \ 
for Macintosh drawing programs (MacDraw). Treetool 2.0.1 is available in binary \ 
form for Sun Sparc machines (Sun 4's) and in source f
 orm. Treetool requires X-windows (from MIT), and the Xview toolkit (from Sun \ 
Microsystems)
 . Both are free (copyrighted) software, available readily from a number of \ 
sources (both are available by anonymous ftp to export.lcs.mit.edu).
