    -c          Cladogram mode:
                (auto if no branch lengths present in tree)
                normal: all branch lengths equal
                accelerated: same as normal except OTUs are aligned at end

    -o          Print on multiple pages at actual size
    -W          Specify output page width (default: 8.5")
    -H          Specify output page height (default: 11")
    -a          Change page dimensions to fit plot

This program will read a NEXUS file and output a PostScript display of trees (one file for each tree in the Trees Block), as well as any character matrix (e.g. sequences) if present in the file.
