Tk::TreeGraph is a Canvas specialized to draw trees on a Canvas using arrows and nodes. A node is simply some text imbedded in a rectangular shape. TreeGraph is able to draw the following items: - node: some text in a rectangular shape. - direct arrow: an arrow to go from one node to the following one. - slanted arrow: an arrow to make a new branch - shortcuts arrow: an arrow to represent a shortcut between 2 nodes from different branches. Starting from version 1.007, all coordinates are handled by the object. Hence drawing the tree is much simpler. Starting from version 1.008, you don't need to draw the direct and slanted arrows yourself, the object will do it for you when you add a node. Hence drawing the tree is even more simple. Starting from version 1.013, the drawing is more compact.
