Folks,

I've just started on this project, so hints on which way to head would
be appreciated.
I'm posting it up in the hopes that someone will say, "Hey, that's what
Project Y does" and that way I don't have to reinvent the wheel.

I got some data in the form of:
Head
SubHeadA
SubSubHead1
SubSubHead2
SubSubHead3
SubHeadB
SubSubHead1
SubSubHead2

What I need to do is arrange that data in some kind of tree form.
Something like (excuse the bad ascii drawing, hopefully it'll come through):

                           Head
                             |
                            /\
               SubHeadA            SubHeadB
                   |                  |
                 / | \              / | \
      SubSubHead1  2  3   SubSubHead1 2  3

Ascii would be acceptable, bonus points for graphical.
I said "Org Chart" in the subject because that's the closet thing I
could think of that represents the idea I'm shooting for.
I suppose I could have said "hierarchal collection of boxes" or maybe
"tree of boxes" if that helps.

Ideas on where to start?


Isn't this the kind of display (maybe rotated 90 degrees) that the
program tree(1) produces for directory trees?
