Thanks for catching that! I'll send you an email - thanks for taking the time to make a project. I do have a google code account - I should probably move this into that! @Guus

I'll be happy to send it to you, if you'd like me to. There appears to be a small omission in the code: you're not overriding Object.equals(Object obj) even though you intent to. Instead, you have GenericTreeNode.equals(GenericTreeNode obj). Poke me via mail (I included it in the header of this comment) and I'll send you a project archive. @vivin

It'd be nice to be able to simply include it as a library. Are you releasing this code as a project somewhere? It’d be nice to be able to simply include it as a library.

When using a substring, it's not immediately obvious (without comments) what you're doing. I also gravitate towards to regexes due to the fact that I've written a lot of Perl code. Regexes aren't as elegant in Java though. @Lobo

Which one do you prefer? Using Pattern, Matcher etc over - return (this.children.size()>0? str.substring(0, str.lenth()-2) : str ) + "]"; I believe it’s a rough implementation of your idea.
