As you will see, this algorithm is somewhat subtle, and not easy to express in clear simple terms. But I think that I have in fact expressed it clearly in simply. If I have not, I wish very much to be told so, and why. You can get a copy here: http://innominate.org/~phillips/tux2/phase.tree.algorithm.txt Please, if you are especially anal and nasty and have little regard for anyone's feelings, read this and complain about every little thing that is wrong with it, and I will greatly appreciate that. I will also appreciate comments of the form 'you left out this or that', or 'this part sounds like so much bafflegab' and so on.
