Is there any good tool for drawing Trees. like trees in Data structure books. I googled but all of the tools like visio, Dia, ... are general tools and drawing trees with them takes much time.

If you could link to an example screenshot, that would be most awesome. I have a difficult time knowing exactly what you mean by "tree" (mindmap, decision "tree" (flow diagram), etc.). – Hendy Jul 20 '11 at 20:39

GraphViz is a processor from text to a picture. You type in code in a text editor, and it generates a tree/graph for you. See also gallery and guide.

In the text you write, you specify how the nodes relate to each other (child -> parent), and then graphviz tries to draw it as neatly as possible.

If you're looking for a tool for drawing graphs (every tree is a graph), then you might check out JGraph. It supports directed and undirected, and has many options for configuration.
