[Bioperl-l] Capabilities of Bio::Tree

[Bryony Mackenzie]

Hello,

I am interested in using the Bio::Tree module and would like to read in 
Newick format and convert to a web-friendly
graphical format. Ideally I want to use colours and other options to 
prettify the tree.

I have looked at using the Treeplot program but it does not seem to 
distinguish properly between my consensus trees
with bootstrap values and trees with branch lengths. It tries to 
interpret my boostraps as branch lengths :(

I have read the docs but am still confused as to the abilities of 
Bio::Tree. I see that handling phylogenetic trees has been
put down as a problem area for bioperl and I was wondering what progress 
is being made ?

Thanks,
Bryony
