Template:Cladex/doc

This template is an eXtended version of Clade, hence the name. Both templates are for drawing branching trees with the node and base labels being clickable links. Such diagrams are especially suited to represent evolutionary trees (cladograms).

Most of the documentation is the same as the parent template, Clade, and is included below for convenience. Unless the two extra features of are needed, you are advised to use Clade.

The two extra features of are:
 * Double lines leading to a node can be produced as easily as dotted lines.
 * Brackets or bars of a chosen colour can be placed to the right of a set of leaf nodes in the cladogram, thus allowing paraphyletic groups to be identified. See . Text labels for these brackets/bars can be provided using Barlabel.

Clade and can be freely mixed, so if only some clades require the extra features, only these need be specified using.
