The following PostScript code is probably ugly to the eyes of a seasoned postscript-hacker, but it illustrates the above point. I assume you could send it directly to a ps printer.



%!

% To draw a tree of complexity n:
%       * Draw a trunk.       
%       * If n > 0, draw several smaller trees of
%         complexity n-1 on top of the trunk, at angles.
