Does anyone have any information about generating treesand other
more general graphs using emTeX?  My problem is this: I would
like to include graphs and what-not in a paper but I can't use
xfig (no access to an Xterminal) and if I want to print this at
home for diagnostic purposes I don't have a postscript printer
anyway.
A really nice solution would be to use something crude like PaintBrush
for Windows to generate the graphs and labels, write the diagrams out to
a tiff (or maybe pcx) file, use some kind of construction (\special?)
to tell latex
where to put the thing, and print it on my Panasonic 1124.

Two important questions:
	1) Is it hopelessly naive to think that this can be done?
	2) Has anyone done anything similar? 

Email would be fine, post if you think others would benefit.

Thanks a bunch!
