texlive-forest Subpackage of texlive

The package is provides a PGF/TikZ-based mechanism for drawing linguistic (and other kinds of) trees. Its main features are: a packing algorithm which can produce very compact trees; a user- friendly interface consisting of the familiar bracket encoding of trees plus the key-value interface to option-setting; many tree-formatting options, with control over option values of individual nodes and mechanisms for their manipulation; the possibility to decorate the tree using the full power of PGF/TikZ; and an externalization mechanism sensitive to code- changes.
