  \item{object}{an object of class \code{"multiPhylo"}.}
  \item{printlen}{the number of labels to print (6 by default).}
  \item{details}{a logical indicating whether to print information on
    all trees.}
  \item{i}{indices of the tree(s) to select from a list; this may be a

\description{
  These functions prints a compact summary of a phylogeny, or a list of
  phylogenies, on the console.

  The operators \code{[}, \code{[[}, and \code{$} propagate the class
  correctly.
}
\value{
  An object of class \code{"phylo"} (\code{[[}, \code{$}) or of class
  \code{"multiPhylo"} (\code{[}), or NULL.
