Yes, but I tried to start doing that by making a macro that reads from a 
file.  The file is a list of nodes with things like the node names and 
the names of the ancestor nodes.  I would need to figure out a way to 
give an initial position to the root node and then have the macro figure 
out the locations of the rest of the nodes.  I already set up a root 
node with some cylinders sticking out of it with the number of 
descendants per node being specified in the file.  But I would like to 
be able to add nodes without having to increment such numbers.  Time to 
go back to the drawing table.
