Contains functions for developing phylogenetic trees as deeply-nested lists ("dendrogram" objects). Enables bi-directional conversion between dendrogram and "phylo" objects (see Paradis et al (2004) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btg412>), and features several tools for command-line tree manipulation and import/export via Newick parenthetic text.
