Done! Sorry -- as I said, I'm new to cvs...  :)

Me too.  For the moment, however, I'm not as concerned about keeping the
Tk and Gtk versions identical so much as incorporating functionality into
the codebase that can be used by either version -- for example, the simple
ancestral-states-using-parsimony class (not finished yet) that will take a
tree and a taxon:character dictionary, and return the most parsimonious
ancestral states for the character on the tree.

Also, Gtk doesn't have some of the functionality of Tk, e.g., the
postscript tree-printing that you implemented (very cool :)

If it's ok with you, why don't we put all the files into the 'pyphy'
directory.  The 'mavric' subdirectory seems a bit unnecessary, as all the
files are in there.  I'm not sure what cvs commands are needed to do this
(I assume just 'cvs add')?
