If you store your phylogenetic matrices in Google sheets or similar. Here is code for converting it directly into a TNT file. It can also write a list of statements from Sheets into a formatted word document.

At least I'm getting this @SVP 2024 talk out of the way early. The main purpuse of this talk is to encourage more research on the J/K terrestrial boundary. It got really wet for a bit; why? Drown the dipodocids...who knows? 8:15 Wed. AM. Heck, that's tomorrow.....#SVP2024

@NHMdinolab I switched to Roberts app from Sasol apps and books. If you get the app you also go the unbelievable amount of information in the Roberts VII book bundled in. The field guide does have a little more info than Sasol as well.

This place is going to be amazing!!
