\usage{
write.nexus(phy, file = "", translate = TRUE, original.data = TRUE)
}
\arguments{
\item{phy}{an object of class \code{"phylo"}.}
\item{file}{a file name specified by either a variable of mode character,
or a double-quoted string; if \code{file = ""} (the default) then the
tree is written on the standard output connection.}
\item{translate}{a logical, if \code{TRUE} (the default) a translation
of the tip labels is done which are replaced in the parenthetic
representation with tokens.}
\item{original.data}{a logical, if \code{TRUE} (the default) the

\code{"file"} (see below).}
}
\description{
This function writes a tree in a file with the NEXUS format.
}
\details{
If \code{original.data = TRUE}, the file as specified by the attribute
\code{"origin"} of \code{phy} is read and its data (except the trees)
are written in \code{file}.
Currently, only a single tree can be written in \code{file}.
}
\value{
None (invisible `NULL').
