( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

I'm not sure, but maybe such a structure is easier to create:

┼┬┬┬┬┬a
│││││└b
││││└c
│││└┬d
│││ └e
││├┬┬┬f
│││││└g
││││└h
│││└┬┬i
│││ │└j
....

My inspiration is https://github.com/perl6/std/blob/master/viv#L187 which produces parse trees like

└─VAST::statementlist, BEG: 0, END: 7
  ├─VAST::statement, BEG: 0, END: 7
  │ └─VAST::term__S_identifier, BEG: 0, END: 7, SYM: identifier, _from: 7,
  │   │   _pos: 7, _specific: 1, dba: term, prec: z=
  │   ├─VAST::identifier, BEG: 0, END: 3, TEXT: say
  │   └─VAST::args, BEG: 3, END: 7, invocant: undef
  │     └─VAST::arglist, BEG: 4, END: 7, WS: 1
  │       └─VAST::term__S_value, BEG: 4, END: 6, SYM: value, WS: 1,
  │         │   _specific: 1
  │         └─VAST::value__S_number, BEG: 4, END: 6, SYM: number, WS: 1,
  │           │   _specific: 1
  │           └─VAST::number, BEG: 4, END: 6, WS: 1
  │             └─VAST::integer, BEG: 4, END: 6, WS: 1
  │               └─VAST::decint, BEG: 4, END: 6, TEXT: 42, WS: 1
  └─VAST::eat_terminator, BEG: 7, END: 7, TEXT: , WS: 1

Update: just today a Perl 6 solution for Visualize a tree on rosettacode was entered, it produces similar output:

root
├─a
│ └─a1
│   └─a11
└─b
  ├─b1
  │ └─b11
  ├─b2
  └─b3

Shouldn't be to hard to port to Perl 5.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
