Jan 19, 2015 at 3:15 comment added cfr I say this is false advertising: when I compiled it, I didn't get a cat at all...
Dec 30, 2014 at 21:47 comment added David Carlisle @SeanAllred I appreciate your concern
Dec 30, 2014 at 21:36 comment added Sean Allred I worry about you sometimes... :)
Dec 12, 2013 at 9:26 comment added David Carlisle @Canageek should work with pdflatex, it's just Alain's answer, with the source code um, pretty printed a bit.
Dec 12, 2013 at 7:56 comment added Canageek Odd, I can't get it to compile with either TeX or pdflatex.
Dec 18, 2012 at 11:53 comment added David Carlisle No, just a few minutes (if I had taken longer I would have done a better job of getting even line length without using %. I didn't type it in of course it was just derived from Alain's code by applying a few regular-expression replace from his posted code, but they were just interactively applied not any saved script
Dec 18, 2012 at 11:41 comment added AlexG So it took 10 months to do it manually?
Dec 18, 2012 at 11:36 comment added David Carlisle @AlexG imagine again:-)
Dec 18, 2012 at 11:35 comment added AlexG Cannot imagine you obfuscated @Alain 's code by hand. Could you please make the script or whatever you used public?
Oct 27, 2012 at 22:34 comment added David Carlisle save it as tree.tex and pdflatex tree
Oct 27, 2012 at 22:33 comment added hpesoj626 Forgive me my ignorance of TeX, but how do I compile this? :-)
Oct 27, 2012 at 21:01 comment added David Carlisle Some code is just so transparently obvious that additional documentation is clearly unnecessary.
Oct 27, 2012 at 20:57 comment added Peter Grill Hey, just remembered that code only answers are frowned up, so this could use some documentation to explain how this works, and how we could change some of the paramaters. :-)
Oct 27, 2012 at 20:57 comment added Paulo Cereda If you look at this code without blinking for 5 minutes, you start to see a christmas tree. :)
Oct 26, 2012 at 16:21 comment added Peter Grill Awesome!!I plan to use this as a showcase as to how easy TeX is to use...
Oct 26, 2012 at 9:54 comment added David Carlisle well the screenshot is the same as Alain's code above as topskip noted.
Oct 26, 2012 at 9:29 comment added Andrew Stacey -1: Could at least post a screenshot of the result. (Only joking on the -1)
Oct 26, 2012 at 9:28 comment added topskip Looks like a duplicate :)
