gtreeTableTest.C: This TableTest class is a simple example of how to use a TGTreeTable.

// This TableTest class is a simple example of how to use a TGTreeTable. 
// TableTest inherits from TGMainFrame to create a top
// level frame to embed the TGTreeTable in. First, the staff.root file
// is opened to obtain a tree. A TGTreeTable is then created using the
// tree. In the end, the table is added to the TGMainFrame that is the
// TableTest and the necessary calls to correctly draw the window are
// made. For more information about the use of TGTreeTable, see it's
// documentation.
