(for example, edge labels, arrows between nodes); and it improves on
pst-qtree in being usable with pdfTeX and XeTeX.

enable old commands syntax back.
Algorithm2e is an environment for writing algorithms. An algorithm is defined as a
floating object like figures.It provides macros that allow you to create different sorts
of key words, thus a set of predefined key word is given. You can also change the
typography of the keywords.The environment allows you to have vertical lines
delimiting block of instructions.It defines also different sort of algorithms such as
Procedure or Function allowing name of this functions to be reused in common text
