In the latest "alpha" release of PHYLIP, version 3.6a, my program DRAWGRAM
can do the circular tree format, rooted near the center of the diagram.
DRAWTREE (even in version 3.5c) can do an unrooted tree that spreads out
similarly.
You can write out the result as Postscript and then use any good
drawing program to modify that.
Perhaps Rod Page's program TREEVIEW would do what need as well. David
Swofford's PAUP* can also produce circular and unrooted trees.
