Summary description: easily customisable TOCs License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [2013/03/03] The documentation has again being extended: * it is explained how to convert the TOC data into a tree in the standard TikZ syntax (rather than the Qtree syntax used in the previous documentation release from two days ago).

The name of the first subsection is `Do not read me' and the name of the last is `I told you so'.
