Hello

I've uploaded to CPAN a new perl module to draw Tree graph on a 
Tk::Canvas widget.

The interface is now much simpler since you can draw the tree by specifying
only the node. TreeGraph will automatically draw the arrows.

Here's an extract of the README file:

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.

Suggested DSLI line in the Ptk module list:
