Note: tree_maker requires trees be generated from Clustal!

IMPORTANT: You will need libgl1 to use this, apt install libgl1 for Debian based systems.

To use Tree Maker, run the following command:

Alternatively, import it into your own project:

t = load_tree("A,B,C;")
export_tree(t, "/tmp/tree.pdf", "My tree")

This will generate a PDF file containing the phylogenetic tree.
