The treetex software performs automatic layout  of n-ary  trees,  with
arbitrary sized nodes, in LaTeX.  To use the software you describe the
tree in a tree environment.  For example:

   \begin{tree}[l]{testtreea}
     \rootnode{root node}
     \treenode{nodeA}{root}{left root child}
     \treenode{nodeB}{root}{right root child}
     \treenode{nodeC}{nodeA}{nodeA child}
   \end{tree}

will be layed out something like:

                           root node
                               |
                      -------------------
                      |                 |  
	       left root child   right root child
                      |
                 nodeA child

Also trees can be layed out sideways.  The software is fully described
in the  file `treetex.sty'.  To make the software edit the makefile to
set up the macros correctly and then type:

  make

to test it, type:

  make test
