Is there a better version of format-graph-from-root available than  
the one in CLIM 1.1. I know that this is only a port of the  
Symbolics version but if you want to display serious graphs you  
face the problem that format-graph-from-root always centers the  
successor nodes relative to all predecessor nodes. If you have only  
partially complete graphs this looks very crazy and cannot be used  
for any applications.
Example:
CLIM 1.1:

          B
        /
    A -      D
        \   / 

	  C

but I want this:
          B
        /
    A -
        \
	  C - D

Does anybody have such a graph method? I've already looked at the  
source code of format-graph-from-root and realized that the  
programming was so tricky that a simple patch wouldn't be  
appropriate.
