MrBayes tree file scanners

Torsten Eriksson of the Bergius Botanical Garden, Stockholm, Sweden (torsten AT bergianska DOT se) makes available MrBayes tree file scanners. These are two Perl scripts that scan the output parameter files produced by MrBayes (versions 2.01 and 3). One saves the tree corresponding to the best sample. The other saves all trees that contain a specific node (a specific grouping).

mbscan 
scans an output parameter file (".p") for the best sample(s) and puts the corresponding tree(s) in a separate NEXUS tree file.
treefilter 
scans an output tree file (".t") and selects only those trees which contain a specified node.

They are distributed together, and available from his software distribution site: http://www.bergianska.se/index_forskning_soft.html.
