We will post soon a more complete example of a Tree structure.
This example is based on ATLFast , the ATLAS fast MonteCarlo
that we have recently developed in collaboration with the ATLAS team.
This example creates a Tree with all the RUN information.
It illustrates how to use the TClonesArray container class.
There is also an example of event display (2-d and 3-d)
+ an interesting use of TBrowser to browse all ATLFast objects
including the particles genealogy.
