Name

Tree::Ops - Tree operations.

Synopsis

Create a tree:

my $t = Tree::Ops::new 'a';
for(1..2)
 {$t->open  ('b');
  $t->single('c');
  $t->close;
 }
$t->single  ('d');

Print the tree:

is_deeply $t->print(sub{@_}), <<END;
a
  b
    c
  b
    c
  d
END

Locate a specific child in the tree and print it:

is_deeply [map {$_->user} $t->select('b')], ['b', 'b'];
