Details

Read a single or multiple trees from a file, or a text string. Parallelizable when reading multiple trees. The function will add any internal node labels in the Newick tree as a user-defined data slots. The name of this slot is defined with the spcl_slt_nm. These data can be accessed/manipulated with the `getNdsSlt()` function. Trees are always read as rooted. (Unrooted trees have polytomous root nodes.)
