Thanks!

That's a one-byte change: find the line that contains "`-" and replace it 
with "+-".

Unfortunately, the algorithm itself is very heap-specific, but there's no 
reason you can't generate the same layout from a different data structure.

I don't think I've ever seen quite this layout before - with layers lined up 
horizontally; I think Florian's is more common:
  1
  +---3
  `---2
