Here's how to get a quick tree, using a test file from the Biopython source
distribution:

>>> from Bio import Phylo
>>> tree = Phylo.read("Tests/PhyloXML/apaf.xml", "phyloxml")
>>> Phylo.draw(tree)


If you don't have the Tests/ directory, you can use any other Newick, Nexus
or PhyloXML tree; just change the file name and format name in the call to
Phylo.read().

Thanks,
Eric
